Many of our customers are willing to show off there GARN® unit. Just give us a call or send us an email... we will setup a meeting and meet you there.
ThisWarmHouse features the best renewable energy heating appliances in North America. From wood-fired and biomass hydronic heating systems to personal or community briquetting mills, ThisWarmHouse offers non-fossil energy solutions for a wide variety of home and commercial applications. Check out our menu of appliances and systems on the right navigation area of this page. All of our systems for heat and power are safe, clean and efficient.
TODAY, with the oil well gushing uncontrolled in the Gulf... we consider the dilemma personally - if I derive energy from a wood or biomass system running clean and smoke free, why would I not happily give someone local my money to deliver cordwood, wood scraps or wood pellets to my home or business. There is a large sustainable quantity of cordwood and biomass that could heat every home in North America. Pennsylvania alone could produce $2.5 billion in energy a year and employ 11% of it's working population decade after decade. 1.800.333.4729
Incredible Renewable Energy (RE) Products for you to benefit in fossil fuel & electricity cost savings for your home, business, school or hospital... Solar, Wind, Biomass, Cordwood - All renewable, all with tax incentives and all designed around hydronics and thermal storage: from 200 to 2000 gallons or more. Up to three systems can designed together; a biomass boiler (or wood gasifier), solar tube collector and wind turbine can store energy in the form of heat so your home can use heat as it needs - like you sip on coffee from a Thermos® bottle. Excess electric power can be sold back to your power company.

The GARN® Unit is attractive if you have radiant heating and year-round heating needs for domestic hot water. The key basis for the design is Thermal Storage. The system can be designed for one firing a day on the coldest day of the year and then may only be fired once every 4 days in the summer. (a "firing is a 2.5hr burn that takes 5-10mins of your time to load and light). The AllGreen-Atmos™ biomass or cord wood boiler will fit your suburban home and lifestyle. This is green energy and little has to change compared with owning a fossil-fuel boiler or furnace. The company is respected since 1936 making wood gas engine for cars, trucks and ships and gasification boilers since 1969! Available in three variations - A pellet boiler with a backup cordwood & briquette option - A cordwood and briquette gasification boiler - and a combination boiler for pellet fuel, cordwood/briquette and natural gas or fuel oil. All are high efficiency and eligible for tax incentives for 2009. The Verner automatic biomass boiler uses pellets or cereal grains and is super nice and efficient. The Pro Series cordwood gasifier is an outdoor appliance for rural areas and meets the 2010 emmisions standard and is the cleanest outdoor wood boiler on the market.
For a complete system, we design to the whole spectrum of RE.fuel available in your area. In many areas we can supply the fuel. Thermal storage is the centerpiece in all of our designs; biomass or wood heating, solar hot water, solar PV and wind energy.
An important note about Thermal Storage:
//The purpose of an equalizing storage reservoir is for heat energy optimalization or control.
The boilers for cord wood can be efffectively operated only in the service range of 50 - 100% of output. In the case of service under 50% the burning process is low quality which means low efficiency, increased harmful pollutants output, the boiler and chimney sooting and shortening of the boiler life. Output of less than 50% is common for more of the heating season. The boiler can be operated with the storage reservoir effectively even in this period as the surplus output is stored in the reservoir. If the reservoir is completely charged, it is necessary to shut down the boiler and for some period (i.e. 1 day). During that time, heat for the home is provided by the heat from the storage reservoir. The boiler is simply "fired" again after the temperature of the storage becomes low (you can be text messaged). The storage reservoir provides the heat comfort AND the highest quality boiler function.
At ThisWarmHouse we see the design of a heating system with the storage reservoir having a lot of advantages (this is why we price them together):
The storage of the surplus heat during the over-production of heat in the thermal energy source (boiler thermal spike protection)
Immediate (on demand) supply of the cumulated heat when needed
The reduction of the time demands for you to add fuel or maintain the fire because the cumulated heat can be sufficient in the transitional periods of the heating season even for several days
The storage reservoirs with the domestic hot water exchanger - transfer the thermal energy from the heating water to the fresh hot water supply of the kitchen, bathroom and laundry and in the summer the advantage is saving the use of fossil fuels and the costs of utilities in the summer.//
