How efficient is an Econoburn gasification wood boiler in comparison to other boilers?
The Econoburn boiler achieves an amazing 87% thermal efficiency! Conventional style wood furnaces (OWB’s) consisting of nothing more than a firebox and a chimney, produce efficiencies of just 25- 30%. OWB’s allow vast amounts of smoke and gas to escape out of the chimney unburned. The Econoburn reclaims what would normally be lost up the chimney as wasted energy and pollution, saving you time and money.
