I want to convert my boiler from #2 oil to both #2 and wood pellets! U.S.A. got a burner that can do that?


Live in New England and have an existing boiler.
I would like to be able to use both wood pellets and #2 oil depending on the price. Is there a way to convert so I can have the option. Company Names would be good!

I don't think you can convert the boiler you have but you could add an additional pellet boiler. There are also several companies that make wood and wood pellet fired boilers. I have been looking into this myself. Below are some links I have found.

What type of pipe should I use for my wood burner?

    the two technologies are completely differnent. you could hook up a hot water baseboard system in parallel ( DONT FORGET THE RELieF VALVES) because i had one and worked well.

    good luck
