Title: biomass boiler rooms
Post by: sss on August 22, 2014, 01:59:31 pm

Afternoon all.

We are having our biomass boiler and hopper placed into a building alongside the house. This 'building' is going to be either a tongue and groove shed or a converted shipping container.

Has anyone any experience on either?

Shipping container fairly standard solution. Lower fire risk?

No direct experience but we looked into it and both would work but shipping container probably easier on basis of keeping them dry. Sadly had to abandon since we'd have got permission for neither :-(
