99kW Hargassner ECO-PK

Introducing the new 99kW Hargassner ECO-PK

New to the UK and Ireland in November 2014

Designed with efficiency and ease of use in mind, the 99kW Hargassner ECO-PK includes the latest biomass boiler technology available - the Hargassner ECO range of boilers won the 'Energy Genius' award from the Austrian Ministry of the Environment. 

If you are installing a 99kW in Northern Ireland, to avail of the government Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI), make sure you install a system that will last. The 20 year RHI is linked to the boiler itself - protect your payments and install a Hargassner.

Available across Ireland from Green Energy Technology Ltd. this cutting edge wood pellet boiler (and its wood chip version ECO-HK) has a substantial amount of unique, patented features. We estimate that these features, over the lifetime of the Renewable Heat Incentive, could save the owner over £4,000 in electrical running costs alone - compared to Hargassner competitors.

Double Rotary Grate (1)

The 'stage crusher grate' is the best method for cleaning the burning grate without disruption to combustion. During the combustion the grates are moved accurately, to ensure a homogeneous fire-bed. This double rotary grate is unique to Hargassner.

Firebed height monitoring system with sensors    (2)

Combined with a lambda sensor for fuel quality detection, resulting in the lowest carbon monoxide values, and lowest dust emissions. Hargassner boilers are UK Clean Air Act Exempt. Only Hargassner offer firebed level monitoring as standard.

Heat exchanger cleaning in the first pass   (3)

The Hargassner cleaning system cleans all areas where soot and fly ash can built up - even in the first pass (unlike the majority of competitor boilers). This mechanism creates a more efficient heat exchanger as the boiler is cleaner, and the gas flow is slower.

External soot collection   (4)

Option to add a large soot collector and increase emptying intervals

The silent energy saving ignition (5) only requires 300W, unlike other boiler ignitions which require over 1.3kW. 

Integrated touch controller    (6)

The 5.7” screen with touch controller allows the user to easily see the boiler status, and change settings. 

The EC exhaust gas fan (7) has up to 90% efficiency and is only available from Hargassner. Read more about the EC fan here: EC Exhaust Gas Fan

Flue gas re-circulation as standard    (8)

This helps control combustion temperatures and reduce NOx formation. It reduces the temperature of the grate to help prevent the formation of slag, and give a more even distribution of the fires heat. A cleaner and more complete combustion.

Integrated back-end protection   (9)

The pump, mixing valve and actuator needed to protect the boiler now comes integrated. This compact solution reduces the space required and speeds up installation time.

Patented ash and fly ash removal system   (10)

The ash extracting auger transports the fly ash and also the grate ash into the ash box. On the way to the ash box all the ash is compacted to a quarter of its volume - thereby saving space and lengthening emptying intervals.

No thermal safety valve required  (11) 

Speeding up installation time and cost

Combustion chamber surrounded by water  (12)

Maximum heat transfer and boiler control

Flame concentration jets out of high-end steel cast section   (13)

Double rotary valve dispenser (18) with cyclone suction system (14)

The unique double rotary valve allows continuous combustion even during pellet suction. The double valve provides a complete air lock between the combustion chamber and pellet hopper. The sound proofed suction system (15) with pellet level indicator (16) allows the end-user to place their wood pellet store up to 20 metres away. The suction system is closed and maintenance free (no filters).

Stainless steel stoker auger   (17)

One motor for everything

Boiler cleaning, fly ash transport, grate ash removal and ash transport to ash box is all handled by one drive motor. This is a single maintenance-free gear motor. This not only reduces the number of electrical components and increases operating reliability; it also saves on electrical consumption.

Hargassner App

Hargassner is the only manufacturer in this boiler class to have a dedicated and fully functioning iPhone and Android app to allow remote access. Other manufacturers produce apps that simply direct the user to a website. 

·         Switch circuits on/off and reduce temperature

·         Change heating times

·         Activate holiday mode

·         Status updates via notifications or email

·         Unlimited users

·         Worldwide access to heating system

·         Easy and intuitive

Fully refractory-lined combustion chamber

Hargassner boilers are fully refractory lined with high density bricks. Refractory has proven itself as the best material available in terms of heat storage, function and durability. The result is, even at partial loads, optimal combustion and fewer ignitions.

Negative pressure sensor to monitor under/over pressure events

Boilers without negative pressure monitoring cannot detect blockages in the heat exchanger. In addition, exhaust gas and combustion air fans do not speed up nor slow down in relation to the pressure inside the boiler - making other boilers less efficient. 

Standard warranty of 5 years, option to extend up to 10 years

Hargassner Boiler Technology

Latest Combustion Technology – ECO Control

Lambda sensor with fuel quality detection

It doesn't matter which fuel type is stored – soft, dry or damp woodchips – the control unit uses the lambda sensor to detect the relevant calorific value and regulates the optimum fuelair mixture. This is how convenient controls work today – constant manual adjustment of the system to the fuel is a thing of the past.

As well as being environmentally friendly with ultra low energy consumption, the all new ECO HK has the ability to occasionally burn logs making it the most versatile boiler available today.

Combustion Ergonomics

The design of the combustion chamber has been scientifically investigated through CFD  - Simulation (Computational Fluid Dynamics) and as a result is perfectly adapted.

Firebed Monitoring

Through the exact and contact free firebed-height monitoring system with sensors, the most effective combustion condition dependant on fuel quality is detected. Your heating system is always working with the required heat output at optimum combustion values.

Fully refractory-lined high performance combustion chamber with flame concentration jets for optimum post-combustion

The refractory combustion chamber guarantees high combustion temperatures through optimum heat storage (also at part-load), which minimizes the ignition procedure and reduces emissions.

Accessories:

Integrated Back End Protection

An integrated back end protection with energy-efficient pump and motor mixer is available.

-          -Quick and easy assembly

-          -Compact and inexpensive

Recirculation for Agricultural Fuels

To reduce clinker creation in the ash, Hargassner offers a flue gas recirculation, especially for agricultural fuels. Due to the cooling of the firebed during combustion, the relatively low ash melting point of miscanthus or corn cobs can be undercut. The ash can easily be removed into the ash extraction auger.

Latest Touch-Control

(Integrated, Plug & Play)

The all new Lambda-Touch-Tronic leaves nothing to be desired. The control system is characterised through its exceptional design and simple handling. Navigation is very sophisticated. You visually recognise immediately the current status of the boiler, the accumulator and the HWS as well as all heating circuits. New optimized accumulator control with 3 sensors. New remote controls with LCD or Touch Displays make it even easier to use.

Perfect Cleaning – Increased Efficiency

The newly designed cleaning approach cleans ALL heat exchanger tubes at regular intervals – NEW – also the 1. Down-Drought is cleaned (Stainless Steel Turbulators) the turbulators remove the fly ash from the pipes, which directly falls down into the ash extraction auger. The result is easier cleaning and increased overall efficiency.

Fully Automatic Ash Extraction

Hargassner heating technology now brings you even more convenience: The latest de-ash system cleans the boiler at regular intervals. The ash extraction auger transports the fly ash, as well as the grate ash, into the completely integrated ash box. During the transport the ash is crushed and compressed in the ash box.

The all new ash suction system results in annual maintenance intervals

Optionally a 300 Litre Bin is available.

The suction system transports the ash through a steel pipe system from the boiler room into the ash bin, which is located at a roofed outdoor area. With a tractor or a front loader, the ash bin may be emptied once a year. Hargassner provides best ease of use – with superior and smart cleaning technology.

Official opening of first Zero Carbon house

Northern Ireland's first Zero Carbon House was officially opened by Environment Minister Alex Attwood & Irish Environment Minister Phil Hogan

All renewable energy equipment was provided and installed by Green Energy Technology Ltd, the company also supplied the whole house energy assessment used to achieve zero carbon standard.

The project was supported by councillors, MLA's, TD's and Ministers from Stormont and Leinster House.

L-R William Irvine MLA, Thomas O'Hanlan SDLP, Damien Philips, John McClatchey, Irish Minister for the Environment Phil Hogan T.D, Minister for Environment Alex Attwood, Heather Humpreys T.D Cavan-Monaghan, Dominic Bradley, Sean Conlon T.D Cavan-Monaghan, Mealla Campbell Deputy Mayor Armagh City & District Council

This home was able to benefit from the Low Carbon Homes Scheme, and as it achieved Zero Carbon standard the owner will not have to pay council rates for 5 years, unfortunately this scheme has now closed.

Further information on the build and technology used can be found here.

The home also benefits from hugely decreased running costs due to the energy efficient design and the renewable technology used. It is estimated that the running costs are up to 70% lower than a regular home.

Patrick Flynn (Director), Damien Phillips (Business Development Manager) and John Martin (Director) from Green Energy Technology Limited

Zero carbon houses will be the standard of building by 2016, but the builder of this home (Green Future Ltd.) have shown that zero carbon is achievable now, and at a sensible price.

All equipment installed by Green Energy Technology will also qualify for any Northern Ireland Renewable Heat Incentive.

First Zero Carbon Home uses Green Energy Technology

Green Energy Technology Ltd has recently completed a whole house renewable energy package in Northern Ireland's first, government accredited, Zero Carbon Home.

Zero carbon home in County Armagh

The Green Future home

The home, built by Green Future Ltd., qualifies under the Low Carbon Homes Scheme - it is the first Zero Carbon home within this scheme, and qualifies for 5 years relief from council rates; estimated saving of over £10,000.

Zero Carbon construction

Green Energy Technology Ltd (G.E.T.), in conjunction with Energy Control Ireland, carried out a full energy assessment of the home, at planning stage, from the architects drawings and specifications. They looked at all the proposed materials, their features, quality and standards. 

Green Future Ltd were completely focused on the Zero Carbon standard as they appreciated that there will be no other alternative to building in the near future. By 2016 all new builds will have to meet this specification.

The G.E.T. comprehensive Energy Advice Report detailed everything that Green Future Ltd needed to do to acheive Zero Carbon standard, with the most important elements being air tightness and the whole house renewable energy package. This Energy Advice Report is specific to each individual home, as the Zero Carbon fabric and renewable energy requirements differ from home to home.

Achieving Zero Carbon standard

This Zero Carbon home needed to have heat and hot water provided by renewable energy sources, and it also needed to produce its own electricity.

G.E.T. designed a whole house package of renewable energy equipment - each complimenting each other, that minimsed the running costs of the home and its carbon output. 

South facing roof with Green Energy Technology Solar Hot Water tubes and Solar Electricity Panels

Green Energy Technology Ltd. supplied and installed;

- A solar hot water system and compatible hot press cylinder

Providing over 60% of the annual hot water requirements

- A solar electricity system

Providing both free electricity AND an income to the homeowner

- A wood pellet boiler and pellets

Cheap renewable heat on demand. Wood pellet boiler manufactured in Ireland by Grant Engineering. This boiler is 97% efficient, fully automatic and self cleaning

Grant Spira wood pellet boiler in the Zero Carbon home

As MCS accredited installers, using MCS accredited equipment, Green Energy Technology Ltd. were able to install these systems to UK government standards and to allow the homeowner to benefit from the maximum manufacturers warranty (up to 25 years).

With the attention to detail that Green Future Ltd. showed during construction, and the materials they used, they were able to achieve an extremely high level of airtightness. They also installed a Mechanical Ventilation Heat Recovery System (installed by Atlantic Air Testing Ltd.) which recycles over 80% of the heat from stale air, and maintains healthy air throughout this air tight home.

The house is situated outside Armagh City, and although it is well ahead of time in terms of energy requirements, it is conventionally designed and sits well into its surroundings. Green Future were keen to ensure that quirky and futuristic features were not a part of this development - the home has been designed to be affordable to build and to run. The company will be operating the home as a 'show house' throughout 2012, it is the template for future new builds and has a wide variety of applications, including; one-off dwellings, entire developments, social housing and residential homes.

This house ticks all the Zero Carbon boxes, and all the money saving boxes.

The Green Future of Zero Carbon Homes

Green Future and Green Energy Technology have achieved what many 'experts' said wasn't yet possible; Green Future built a real Zero Carbon home at an affordable price - this is not a 'concept' home. Green Energy Technology complimented this design by integrating a renewables package that is proven to perform.

Green comfort and style

A contemporary and stylist range of Italian stoves, with a difference, are now available from Green Energy Technology Ltd. Unlike conventional stoves, these are fully automatic, programmable and run on eco-friendly wood pellets.

This is not where the differences with traditional wood fired stoves end; these stoves are over 90% efficient and come with a remote control – installation is very simple through any existing chimney, or a small flue through an external wall.

The stoves range from 6 to 24 kilowatts and can be integrated with radiators, under floor heating, or air ducts, to provide heat for an entire house. With the standards of energy efficiency of new buildings increasing year by year, houses no longer need large boilers or an area set aside for oil tanks or fuel storage. Wood pellet stoves have become a popular alternative due to their quality and the wide availability of wood pellets.

The stoves are self fuelling via an integrated pellet storage hopper – which can last for up to 40 hours – costing around 25 pence per hour, over 30% cheaper than kerosene oil. Pellets normally come in easy to handle 10kg bags. The pellets are burned to a fine dust potash into a removable drawer, this potash can be spread onto a lawn or flowers to help growth.

Stoves can be integrated with existing thermostats, and an optional extra is the ability to text your stove to turn it on or off, as they are GSM ready, a good option for holiday home owners. A number of finishes are available, including metal, ceramic, and soapstone.

These stoves have also applications for businesses wishing to heat offices, hallways or a lobby economically – there is a grant of £850 available for businesses on a first come, first served basis.

Green Energy Technology have over 20 styles of these stoves available, and working models in their showroom.
