EPA-Qualified, High Efficiency Wood Boilers Combat Soaring Heating Oil Prices

The high cost of oil is causing many people to panic about winter heating bills as homeowners brace for higher prices than last year. According to estimates by the Department of Energy, households using heating oil will pay an average $4.34 a gallon, or $2,644 for the heating season, up more than 30 percent from last winter and up 150 percent since 2003. This uncertainty and added budget concerns are prompting people to purchase alternative heating options, such as wood boilers, wood stoves and pellet stoves.

Greenwood Technologies, a manufacturer of high efficiency, EPA-qualified wood boilers is one such company that has seen a dramatic increase in wood boiler sales over the past few months. This interest has been fueled not only by high fuel prices, but also by the growing awareness of performance and air quality improvements offered by clean technology appliances.
