The Inside Story On Outdoor Wood Furnaces
Bishop Brothers Climate Control is an authorized dealer for Central Boiler, America's largest manufacturer of outdoor wood furnaces. Wood, an abundant and renewable source of heating energy, can heat your home, your commercial building, your domestic hot water, or your swimming pool. With the latest technology developed by Central Boiler, you don't have to sacrifice comfort to save money. Because it virtually eliminates conventional heating costs, a Central Boiler furnace can pay for itself in the first two years of use.
The Central Boiler furnace models are engineered to be the most efficient outdoor wood furnaces available while providing the best durability, low maintenance features, and an appealing fit and finish. Our Classic models are manufactured using heavy gauge carbon steel and have proven their durability over many years of service. The Classic models are available in a choice of 9 different colors with the exception of the CL 7260 and the Pallet Burner which are available in charcoal. All of the Classic models are available in a Dual Fuel Ready Model with an optional fuel burner (standard on the CL 7260 and Pallet Burner). Contact us for more information or see the available applications and how they work.
Central Boiler has also developed the E-Classic 2300, the outdoor wood furnace that shatters virtually every preconceived notion about emissions and efficiencies of wood heating. The 2300 has qualified for the U.S. EPA Outdoor Wood-fired Hydronic Heater (OWHH) Program and meets 2010 clean air regulation emissions limits. The E-Classic is also available in Dual Fuel Models and is available in terra brown/taupe.
