The AIRMatic from Rural Energy is a standalone, modular biomass unit that has been developed specifically to heat large volume spaces. Powered by a wood pellet boiler from Herz – the premier Austrian boiler manufacturer that distributes through Rural Energy in the UK, the unit has minimal installation requirements. The system can be mounted in almost any location – all that is needed is a single-phase 230 V electrical supply, space for flue penetration, a water supply and a level floor.
Helping to keep staff warm and provide frost protection for warehouse stock, the system delivers rapid heating whilst offering potential energy cost savings of up to 30 per cent. In addition, the highly efficient boiler is fully compliant with the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI), providing additional income that could be as much as £135,000 over the 20-year life span of the scheme.
Paul Clark, Managing Director, commented: “This heater addresses a real gap in the current biomass market and provides warehouse owners and managers with an easy, off-the-shelf solution that will pay dividends. We are well aware that in warehousing space is at a premium, but with this product only a couple of spare square metres are needed to make the switch to biomass.
“Thanks to the RHI there has never been a better time to embrace biomass technology too. The promise of an additional income combined with lower heating costs than traditional fuel sources such as oil, electricity and LPG, makes biomass a compelling proposition.”
The installation comes with touchscreen controls with remote access capability and an RHI approved heat meter to help users monitor and get the best out of their boiler. What’s more, the heat exchanger and boiler body come with a comprehensive five-year warranty, giving complete piece of mind.
Rural Energy is one of the most experienced biomass distributors and installers in the UK, operating since 2002 and offering a full turnkey service from survey and design, through to installation and on-going maintenance. The company is also a leading biomass training provider, having recently invested more than £150,000 in its Biomass Training and Skills Centre at its head office in Leicestershire.
