Hello,
I've been researching variuos boiler/stoves, etc to possibly replace my oil boiler. My latest research has led me to the Varmenbaronen Apollo boiler, which is a combination pellet/electric boiler - at what seems to be a reasonable price. It has the benefit of electric backup should the pellet portion fail/have problems. This would be an ideal set up, as most other pellet boilers recommend being installed in tandem with the existing oil boiler - something I would like to avoid (oil is $4.00USG and rising, and new legislation is being introduced that would require a boiler inspection for every company that you might wish to purchase oil from. Three different fuel companies = three separate inspections = even more $$$).
Does anyone have any experience with this line of boiler, or this company? Any info would be great. Thanks.
