We are getting a biomass boiler!

It's the final countdown this weekend to the installation of our biomass boiler. Just in time for the fifth anniversary of our coming to this house in Winterbourne Bassett, Wilts, we are realising the dream of dispensing with the oil tank and giving up the "black stuff" for heating and hot water. Our "on borrowed time" oil boiler is going in favour of a wood pellet boiler and touch wood by the end of next week we'll be cashing in our Renewable Heat Initiative premium payment voucher...

Preliminary works on our existing thermal store tank start Monday. Then we'll be one step towards an integrated renewable heat system including the solar thermal panels fitted in 2008. No more scary oil invoices...

Back tomorrow with the story thus far - planning permission woes!
