CARRETERO VALLEJO_out of date/recycle_LOG STOVE BOILER




the log-stove-boilers are one of the most innovative stoves nowadays. Instead of use the heat just for the stove, it recycles that heat and with the help of the boiler it can be used to heat an entire space, house... At the same time, the burned log is normally recycled wood. This way instead of use the wood for heating a room, it is being used to heat the house. With this system we are recycling the heat, and also the gasoil that we normally use for our boilers, now is being saved.
