Background

"We operate a three generation family farm on Maryland's Eastern Shore. Diversification and changing with the times are some of the keys to keeping a family farm afloat..."

System Info

"...We estimate that the boiler will supply 75% of our total heat load with the existing propane unit heaters picking up the rest. The total cost of the new heating system was $75,000. In the past the greenhouse used on average 30,000 gallons of propane in a season. We estimated a $21,000 yearly fuel savings with $2.75 corn...with corn at $4.00 the savings will drop to $14,000..."

"On the plus side we were hoping to replace 75% of our propane usage but we ended up replacing 90%."
 

Issues with Pelco

"Very few! 2 failed components covered by warranty were promptly replaced. All calls to the service department handled quickly by knowledgeable people. Never too busy to answer questions."
