Wood Pellet Boilers

I have read and listened to many people who go on global warming and the need for us to move to renewable energy. Like most people I already own and live in a home that uses oil and central heating system and im planning to change a system that is more environmentally friendly as a wood pellet boiler.

These boilers use wood pellets that are made from compressed sawdust, recycled by plants dry wood which would otherwise end up in landfills.

Wood pellets are a type of wood fuel, generally made from compacted sawdust.

They are usually a byproduct of sawmills and other wood processing activities.

The pellets are very dense and can be produced with a low moisture content

(Less than 10%) which allows them to be burned with high combustion efficiency.

Many models of wood pellet stoves, central heating furnaces and other appliances has emerged since about 1999. With the soaring price of fossil fuels in 2005, demand has increased throughout Europe and an important industry is emerging.

It is in this spirit that I have 5 important questions that I need to answer.

Here are 5 important questions?

Question 1
Is a wood pellet boiler really an efficient heating system to replace my oil or gas boiler?

Question 2
Can a wood pellet boiler to provide the same results as my oil furnace? (To heat my house to a satisfactory level) provide hot water etc.

Question 3
