In March 2025, Birds’ Hill Renewables completed a successful installation of a Klover Smart 80 Wood Pellet Boiler at a residential property in Capel Dewi, Llandysul, Ceredigion. The project was driven by the customer’s desire to replace an old oil boiler with a more sustainable alternative and to take advantage of the Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant of £7,500.
Project Goals
The customer was keen to move away from fossil fuels and improve the overall energy efficiency of their home. By switching to a wood pellet boiler, they aimed to reduce their carbon footprint while benefiting from the long-term cost savings associated with renewable heating.
Installation Details
The installation process was smooth and efficient. The new Klover Smart 80 boiler was fitted in the space previously occupied by a Rayburn. Thanks to the existing flue and usable radiator pipework, the transition was straightforward, minimising disruption and reducing the need for extensive alterations.
Outcome
The new system now provides reliable central heating to both radiators and underfloor systems, as well as domestic hot water. The property has seen a noticeable improvement in efficiency, and the homeowner now benefits from a more consistent and environmentally friendly heating solution.
Sustainability Benefits
Wood pellets are a renewable and more easily replaceable fuel source compared to oil, aligning perfectly with broader goals to reduce dependency on hydrocarbons and cut CO₂ emissions.
Expertise in Action
This project highlights our in-depth understanding of renewable heating systems and their suitability for different properties. Our team was able to recommend the right product for the customer’s needs, ensuring it would integrate seamlessly into the existing setup.
Customer Experience
The customer praised our team for their professionalism and dedication to service. In their words, “The installation team were so willing to go the extra mile to make sure everything was perfect—we couldn’t be happier.”
Reflecting Industry Trends
This installation is part of a growing trend as more homeowners look to reduce their reliance on oil and gas. With energy prices fluctuating and environmental concerns on the rise, renewable heating options like the Klover Smart 80 are becoming increasingly popular across Wales.
The Capel Dewi installation is a great example of how switching to renewable heating not only supports the environment but also improves home efficiency. Birds’ Hill Renewables continues to lead the way in delivering tailored, reliable solutions that meet the needs of today’s eco-conscious homeowners.
