Alternative Energy Solutions
Best Value Plumbing & Heating offers the latest modern alternative energy solutions to save you money and lessen your impact on the Earth. These include biomass heating systems that burn cleanly and consume renewable resources such as wood, corn, pellets, or a combination thereof. We also offer solar-powered hot water heaters which can greatly reduce your utility bills while lessening your carbon footprint. Additionally, we provide our Krystal Klear point-of-use bottleless commercial water chillers which eliminate shipping and delivery, plastic bottles, and the need for extra storage areas while providing the safest drinking water available. Many of these products qualify for Federal tax credits as well.
Wood Boilers
Wood boilers provide a convenient, safe, and environmentally responsible way to heat your home and hot water. Wood boiler owners are ensured of high heating efficiency, low heating costs, and use of an abundant, locally available, renewable fuel. The wood gasification combustion technology used in wood boilers is the most efficient way to burn firewood. As a result, our boilers use substantially less wood than conventional wood boilers and outdoor water stoves. Additionally, this high efficiency burn technology produces little or no creosote, virtually eliminating the risk of a chimney fire and greatly reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Wood boiler options include the Scandtec Solo Plus, the HS Tarm Solo Innova, and the Froling Turbo 3000.
Pellet Boilers
The construction of our pellet boilers ensures high operational reliability, durability, and simple operation. Pellet boilers deliver up to 91% efficiency and can run for days on a single load of fuel. The feed auger automatically adds the correct amount of fuel into the combustion chamber, and the quiet, built-in blower provides the precise mixture of primary and secondary air necessary for clean, efficient combustion. The only maintenance required is filling of the hopper with fuel (Automatic Feed Head available), and the removal of ash, as necessary.
Pellet boiler options include the HS Tarm Multi Heat and the Froling P4 Pellet.
Multi-Fuel Boilers
Multi-fuel boilers are essentially two boilers on one chassis; one side of the boiler is a wood boiler and the other side is a fossil fuel boiler. They are able to utilize firewood and oil or gas (propane or natural gas). If the fire burns out due to lack of wood, the boiler will automatically switch over to the fossil fuel burner ensuring that your home never goes cold.
Separate combustion chambers and heat exchange tubes for each fuel type ensure maximum efficiency and reliability for both sides of the boiler. Multi-fuel boilers are especially appropriate for applications where there is an older existing fossil fuel boiler in place that needs to be replaced and/or there is only one chimney flue available. When there are separate oil and wood boilers in a home they normally each require their own independent flue. The multi-fuel boiler allows you to vent both the wood and fossil fuel exhaust up the same flue.
Multi-fuel boilers include the HS Tarm Excel.
Solar Hot Water Heaters
Solar water heaters—also called solar domestic hot water systems—can be a cost-effective way to generate hot water for your home. They can be used in any climate, and the fuel they use—sunshine—is free. Solar water heating systems include storage tanks and solar collectors. There are two types of solar water heating systems: active, which have circulating pumps and controls, and passive, which don't.
Most solar water heaters require a well-insulated storage tank. Solar storage tanks have an additional outlet and inlet connected to and from the collector. In two-tank systems, the solar water heater preheats water before it enters the conventional water heater. In one-tank systems, the back-up heater is combined with the solar storage in one tank.
Domestic solar hot water heaters include brands such as Buderus.
