Biomass collective heating
We are proud to present the installation of the D’Alessandro CS80 class 5 biomass heater at the Foyer Rural de Levens.
This high-quality industrial heater, manufactured by the prestigious Italian manufacturer D’Alessandro, is specifically designed to ensure optimal biomass combustion, using fuels from renewable energy sources such as pellets, olive pomace and various shells.
This remarkable installation testifies to our firm commitment to the use of green, sustainable energies, while meeting the energy needs of the Foyer Rural de Levens.
The D’Alessandro CS80 heater will efficiently supply the central heating and domestic hot water required for the Foyer Rural’s activities.
What’s more, we’re delighted to point out that this heating system will run on olive pits from a local olive grove, located just outside the village.
The installation was a logistical challenge, even requiring the heater to be delivered by helicopter.
It’s a testament to our unwavering commitment to implementing environmentally-friendly energy solutions and actively supporting the transition to sustainable energy sources.
Thanks to this new installation, the Foyer Rural de Levens will benefit froman ecological and economical source of heat, helping to reduce its carbon footprint and dependence on fossil fuels.
We are convinced that the D’Alessandro CS80 biomass heater will bring considerable benefits in terms of sustainability and energy efficiency, enabling the Foyer Rural to play an exemplary role in promoting an environmentally-friendly lifestyle.
We would like to thank everyone involved in the realization of this major project, which marks a major step forward in our commitment to a more sustainable future.
We are delighted with our contribution to the community of Levens and look forward to seeing the positive impact of this installation at the Foyer Rural.
It’s an honor to be able to work with you to promote a successful energy transition and build a better world.

Why use biomass heaters?
Biomass heaters offer an environmentally-friendly, sustainable energy solution with many advantages. Firstly, they use renewable fuels such as wood residues, wood chips, pellets or agricultural waste, reducing our dependence on fossil fuels and contributing to the transition to a circular economy. By using local biomass sources, they also promote regional energy autonomy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Biomass heating systems are also economically advantageous. The fuels used are often less expensive than fossil fuels, saving money in the long term. What’s more, they can benefit from financial support and government incentives, making their installation even more attractive. In terms of performance, biomass heaters are increasingly efficient and can be tailored to specific user requirements. They can produce heat for heating buildings, producing domestic hot water or even powering industrial processes. What’s more, advanced control systems optimize their operation and reduce their impact on the environment. Last but not least, biomass heating systems contribute to the recovery of waste and the development of local industries. By using renewable raw materials and promoting the sustainable management of forestry and agricultural resources, they help preserve the environment and create local jobs. In short, biomass heating is a viable energy solution that is environmentally friendly, economically advantageous and socially responsible. It plays a key role in the transition to a sustainable energy model and helps combat climate change.
Choosing the right wood-fired workshop heating equipment
Before even considering the type of equipment, it’s imperative to have a precise idea of the volume of air to be heated.
Indeed, the choice will depend in part on this last aspect. You also need to take into account the location of the site, its level ofisolation and its configuration.
Volume of air to be heated
Generally speaking, the volume to be heated is quite large. The heater’s heating power will therefore be proportional to the size of the room. Expressed in Watts, power is defined as a function of the volume in m³ of the room to be heated. In practical terms, the standard formula for benefiting from the heater’s performance is as follows: 1m³ of air=40 watts of heating power. The calculation is based on height and surface area. So, 1m² of surface to be heated = 100 watts of power. For a poorly insulated location, you’ll need to add 15% of this power to get a proportional result.
