Central Heating, Oil to Wood?

Recommended Posts

We have oil central heating and wondering whether to change to a wood boiler or an oil/wood boiler, has anyone done this? If we change from oil to wood can we use the same chimney and water pipes? Also I have googled to try and find an oil/wood boiler but couldn't find any manufacturers. I would be grateful for any advice. Thanks.

we bought an oil/wood boiler from ebay, have to say its about 20 years old but has had a new bruler and doesn't look too bad, also switches from wood to oil if there isn't  sufficient wood.  Leyroy merlin and most of the diy chains do sell wood/oil boilers but you might have to ask them.

i am awaiting some info about installing a different burner and other bits in an existing boiler to accept wood pellets i believe the cost is about 2500 euro but this will allow all existing instalations to remain and pellets are cheaper and  cleaner
