I'm a wood burner, but must admit I'm very impressed with my neighbor's pellet boiler set up. He's running an HS TARM MB SOLO to heat his 150m2 home. His 800 liter tank holds 150 liters for hot water, and the remaining 650 liters for heating. In addition to radiators, he has heated floors. He is very happy with the installation, now about 3 years old. During the dead of winter, he says he burns a ton of pellets per month. He has built a hopper for his pellets and had 4 metric tons delivered yesterday at a cost of about 200 euros per ton (about $260). Not sure how that compares with prices back in the States. Seems to me that everything in France is more expensive, including my wood.
Here's a couple photos of the pellet truck and his set up.
