Greenhouse Boiler

Coal, oil and gas are the most common forms of energy used for greenhouse heating. The choice of which of these to use is based primarily on economics. Generally, hot water boiler is widely used as the central heating system. A central boiler is used to heat water between about 120 F and 180 F. With the technology developed, hot air stove is used more and more widely, which could instead of the hot water boiler for central heating, more over, hot air stove could used for crops drying.

How to Choose the Suitable Boiler

Determine Boiler Medium

both hot water boiler and hot air stove could used for greenhouse heating, the boiler medium should be determined firstly.

Determine Boiler Capacity

General heating boilers are calculated according to area. Generally, 1 ton of boiler heating area is 6000~8000 square meters. For the common workshop and other higher buildings and cold areas, heating area should be relatively reduced.

Determine Boiler Fuel

Boilers are divided into fuel oil gas boilers, coal-fired boilers, biomass boilers, electric boilers. The state strictly controls the coal-fired boilers. The gas-fired boiler should consider whether it is convenient to install the gas pipeline. If it is not convenient, oil-fired or electric boilers should be considered.

Boiler thermal efficiency

Boiler should has high efficiency. The boiler output, the number of sets and other performance can adapt to the demand of heat load change, in order to facilitate economic management. If the use of one boiler operating at full load can meet the demand for steam, it is not appropriate to use two boilers operating under lower load. However, from the perspective of safety production, it is necessary to consider whether a single boiler in operation can be started quickly in a short time due to failure, so as to meet heating requirements without affecting production.

Capacity and Model

It is better to select the boilers with same capacity or combustion equipment. If different, the max limitation is two models, to decrease the problems of equipment layout and management.
