Jeff,I posted in general board in hopes of getting a wider readership.

 I am on the board of directors of our local humane society. We are looking at reducing our heating costs,and reducing our dependence on oil ,by installing some sort of bio-mass system.
  We have a proposal from  a local company to install either Froling p4-100 pellet boilers or Froling t4-150 chip and/or pellet  boilers.
  My question;  Does anyone out there have any experience ( good  or bad) with either of these boilers?

I don't know the specific models anymore, but I do know that Froling is considered a very good name in boilers. I can check with my former business partner, who is a real guru in wood combustion, and see what he has to say.

 John Mc,thank you.I would greatly appreciate any feedback on these boilers.We haven't  committed to anything yet,and will look at other options ,other companies,and other brands before any final decision is made.
 WE are leaning towards bio-mass because it comes from local sources,and historically has been fairly stable in price
