Multi-Fuel Boilers
We have loved staying warm... I will have a 3-4 year pay off on my investment so the way I look at it is...less money to heat with a warmer house and fresh air. I LOVE MY TARM.” Darrel Duffy, Monkton
Multi-fuel boilers are essentially two boilers on one chassis; one side of the boiler is a wood boiler and the other side is a fossil fuel boiler. They are able to utilize firewood and oil or gas (propane or natural gas). If the fire burns out due to lack of wood, the boiler will automatically switch over to the fossil fuel burner ensuring that your home never goes cold.
HS Tarm, located in Denmark, has been a leader in solid fuel boiler technology for over 80 years. Tarm Boilers were the first gasification boilers imported to the U.S. and have set an industry standard for wood and pellet fueled boilers.

The Excel 2000 is a high efficiency multi-fuel boiler with the ability to burn cord wood and oil or gas. The Excel boilers have separate combustion chambers and heat exchange tubes for each fuel. This assures maximum efficiencies. The oil and gas test results on these boilers (up to 86% efficiency) meet or exceed most single fuel oil and gas models.
This boiler is an ideal replacement for a homeowner wanting a single boiler, while retaining the dual fuel capability. During the multi-fuel operation, the boiler will automatically switch from wood to oil or gas whenever the wood fire burns out. This means never having to wake to or come home to a cold house, even if the fire is out because you forgot to load wood.
