pelletkjel

Pelletkjel is a Scandinavian term referring to a type of boiler that burns wood pellets as its primary fuel source. These boilers are designed for efficient and automated heating of residential and commercial spaces. The combustion process is carefully controlled, often with automatic feeding systems that deliver pellets from a storage bin to the combustion chamber as needed. This automation allows for a consistent heat output and reduces the need for manual refueling compared to traditional wood-burning stoves.

The efficiency of pelletkjel systems is a key advantage, as they are engineered to extract a significant amount of energy from the wood pellets. This results in lower fuel consumption and reduced emissions compared to less efficient heating methods. Maintenance typically involves regular cleaning of the combustion chamber and ash removal, though modern systems often have self-cleaning features. The fuel itself, wood pellets, is a renewable resource, often made from sawdust and wood waste, contributing to their environmentally friendly profile. Pelletkjel systems are a popular choice in regions where wood pellets are readily available and cost-effective.
