How can I justify the extra cost of a gasification wood boiler over a conventional outdoor wood boiler?
Econoburn boilers are the best-built, most-efficient wood fired boilers anywhere! Though Econoburn boilers may cost slightly more than conventional outdoor wood boilers, their superior efficiency quickly makes up the difference with reduced wood consumption. Also, unlike open-system wood furnaces, there is no need to install a plate heat exchanger (saving hundreds of dollars). Plus, because the Econoburn boiler operates as a pressurized vessel, it often has a life expectancy that is 2-1/2 times longer than conventional wood furnaces. Lastly, further reducing the cost difference, Econoburn boilers are eligible for a $1,500 Federal tax credit!
