Answers
Frequently asked questions
What is the Pellet Duo boiler?
Pellet Duo is a fully automatic, multi-fuel pellet boiler for hydronic heating, built around an auger-fed automatic hopper plus — on the 20/50/95 models — a manual firebox for backup or supplemental solid-fuel heat.
Which Pellet Duo size should I choose?
Pellet Duo 20 covers up to 3,000 ft², Pellet Duo 50 up to 6,200 ft², and Pellet Duo 95 up to 12,000 ft². For larger commercial or industrial loads, see the Pellet Duo Large/Industrial sizes (150–1000).
Is the Pellet Duo boiler fully automatic?
Yes — pellets, grains, corn, or biomass feed automatically through the auger-fed hopper. The 20/50/95 models also include a separate manual firebox as an optional backup fuel path, but automatic operation doesn't require it.
How much fuel does a Pellet Duo boiler use?
Fuel use depends on hopper size and usage. Regular-tier models (20/50/95) typically run 4–10 days of autonomy — up to two weeks — between refills.
What fuels can Pellet Duo boilers burn?
Wood pellets, grains, corn, or biomass through the automatic hopper, plus cut logs through the manual firebox on the 20/50/95 models.
Can a Pellet Duo boiler heat my whole house and domestic hot water?
Yes — Pellet Duo pairs with a domestic hot water tank such as the APOLLO DHW80 to cover both space heating and domestic hot water from the same boiler.
Can Pellet Duo boilers burn logs manually?
The Pellet Duo 20, 50, and 95 include a manual firebox in the specs table. This gives backup or supplemental solid-fuel flexibility.
How efficient is the Pellet Duo boiler?
Pellet Duo is rated at 92% efficiency and certified to EN 303-5:2012.
Do I need a buffer tank or boiler protection valve?
A buffer tank or boiler protection valve can help manage heat output and protect the system depending on your hydronic design. Confirm the right accessories for your installation with MBTEK.
What should I plan before installing a Pellet Duo boiler?
Plan for hopper refill access, venting, and hydronic connections sized to the model's manual-firebox and automatic-hopper dimensions. Confirm exact clearances and venting requirements with MBTEK before installation.
What maintenance does a Pellet Duo boiler need?
Routine maintenance includes ash removal, keeping the hopper supplied, and periodic cleaning and inspection per the controller manual's schedule.
How much does a Pellet Duo boiler system cost to run?
Running cost depends on fuel price and usage, but Pellet Duo's 92% efficiency and multi-fuel flexibility (pellets, grains, corn, or biomass) are designed to reduce cost per BTU versus wood, diesel, or oil heating.
