SolarAndWood said:How does the material handling work for a system like that? Do you have skids of bags of pellets around and load 30+ at a time into the hopper? $15K doesn't seem like a whole lot more than a wood boiler/storage setup and you can't put anywhere near 1500 lbs worth of btus in a propane tank.
Could be, though my impression from the add is that it looked more like a business trying to sell the unit - it looked more like professional add copy than something a private person would write about his own system, and there was no mention of having to uninstall it, or things like delivery vs. pickup... My guess would be a business that got the unit in as inventory or some such and found it didn't move so they are trying to get out from under it... BHSG could probably tell us since they are the Froling importer, but it isn't really any of our business other than morbid curiosity...SolarAndWood said:My guess is the price of pellets is the reason this boiler is for sale.
SolarAndWood said:My curiosity is if I can come up with a way to produce pellets that isn't any more effort than producing firewood. I have two sources of sawdust that would be more than happy to have one of my dump trailers parked where they currently have dumpsters they pay to have emptied.
