How Much Maintenance do Biomass Boilers Need?
Biomass boilers need a lubrication service every 800 hours of operating time and a major service after 2400 hours of operation. In most applications, boilers are not firing all of the time: a school may only clock-up 2400 hours in a year. Even boilers providing base-load heat will still have 98.5% availability, taking service requirements into account.
