10 South West Building & Construction
May 2011 ENVIRONMENT Efficient heating systems
DUNSTER Heat is based in the South West and is a nationwide supplier of wood-burning boilers and accumulators which can be combined to form an efficient central heating system. There is an ever-growing demand for biomass alternatives to provide central heating and hot water, not only for economic purposes but also due to public consciousness about reducing one’s carbon footprint. At Dunster Heat, we have the solution for the small and large family home, housing and industrial complexes, B&Bs and hotels. Vigas wood-burning boilers and
Akvaterm accumulators are renowned for their quality, reliability and efficiency - which is the reason why Dunster Heat has teamed up these systems. Vigas wood-burning boilers come in
various sizes and due to the downburning gasifying technology employed, they ensure ultra efficiency and a lower fuel consumption compared to standard systems. The Vigas boilers have automatic controls and are simple
to use and maintain. The Akvaterm accumulators are extremely versatile and can also be switched to be powered by gas, oil or solar - therefore giving complete flexibility. Mark Weatherlake, managing director of Dunster Heat, has many years’ experience and knowledge of the biomass market and has a presence at many exhibitions and shows throughout the UK and, where possible, is able to demonstrate a working example of the boiler/accumulator. Mark also is able to provide current information on grants available for a new installation and up- to-date information on the RHI (Renewable Heat Incentive) grants. Dunster Heat provides a full back-up service and, for anyone considering a biomass system for the first time, arrangements can be made to visit a property where an installation is up and running.

Turning up the heat
Dunster Heat is based in the South West and is a nationwide supplier of wood-burning boilers and accumulators, which can be combined to form an efficient central heating system.
There is an ever growing demand for biomass alternatives to provide central heating and hot water, not only for economic purposes, but also due to public consciousness to reducing one’s carbon footprint.

VIGAS wood-burning boilers and AKVATERM accumulators are renowned for their quality, reliability and efficiency – which is the reason why DUNSTER HEAT has teamed up these systems.
VIGAS wood-burning boilers come in various sizes and due to the downburning gasifying technology employed, ensure ultra efficiency and a lower fuel consumption compared to standard systems. The Vigas boilers have automatic controls and are simple to use and maintain.
Recently, VIGAS launched the 16, 25 and 40 models with LAMBDA control units integrally installed, leading to an even greater efficiency – the manufacturer claiming that as a result 10-15% less wood is burnt. DUNSTER HEAT has conducted its own trials, and the results would suggest that this claim is true. DUNSTER HEAT will have a demonstration model of the VIGAS 16 with the LAMBDA control system installed at Ecobuild 2011. AKVATERM offers a choice of accumulator tanks ranging from 300
litres to 5000 litres. The key point of the AKVATERM accumulators is the insulation properties, which ensures that heat loss is miniscule (in the region of 1°C in 24 hours) leading to savings in fuel consumption. AKVATERM will also custom make tanks to accommodate any restrictions in terms of space or height of the property.
These accumulators are extremely versatile and can also be switched to be powered by gas, oil or solar – therefore, giving complete flexibility. Mark Weatherlake, Managing Director of Dunster Heat, has many years experience and knowledge of the biomass market, and has a presence at many exhibitions and shows throughout the U.K. and, where possible, is able to demonstrate a working example of the boiler/ accumulator. Mark also is able to provide current information on grants currently available for a new install and up to date information on the RHI grants. DUNSTER HEAT provides a full back-up service before and after installation, and, for anyone considering a biomass system for the first time, arrangements can be made to visit a property where an installation is up and running.
