The diagrams illustrate the way in which a pellet stove and a pellet boiler function to provide heat to a dwell.
Overall, both the pellet stove and the pellet boiler are powered by wood pellets that provide heat to generate respectively hot air and hot water, then conducted inside houses.
A pellet stove, shows a more complex mechanism. First of all, the wood pellets is poured inside a fuel hopper in which a control panel is placed (that controls the whole process). Secondly, wood pellets is transported from the fuel hopper into a fuel feed that brings pellets into a combustion chamber that starts to transform pellets into fire useful to provide heat. After combustion starts, ashes coming out from burnt pellets go into an ash pan. Hot air is then conducted outside through a combustion fan, and also an exhaust duct is placed in the rear panel to extrude smoke.
On the other hand, a pellet boiler works similarly to a pellet stove. In the first place, wood pellets is burnt inside a furnace to start heating the cold water coming from a tube under the boiler. After combustion happens inside the furnace, ash is collected into a receptacle, and smoke is expelled through a smoke stack over the roof. Finally, hot water is transported from the furnace into the house, heating different rooms thanks to a path that conduces it from the living room downstairs and bedrooms upstair.
