Double-combustion wood pellet outdoor heaters
01.
Identification
With Edelsun outdoor heating, bars, hotels and restaurants can offer warmth, comfort and style to their customers for only 2€ per hour, while taking a step towards a CO2 neutral world.
Showcasing bars and restaurants, terraces are the first contact with customers, pushing them to sit down or leave. It is also an additional sales space that must be optimized by offering comfort to customers. For these two reasons, the development and installation of heating systems for terraces have exploded in recent years. However, today's heating systems are veritable energy chasms and emit a significant amount of CO2. To meet this challenge, Edelsun offers an alternative by using wood pellets as fuel to provide a local, renewable and CO2 neutral heating system. Thanks to its design allowing the customer to admire the beautiful flames, Edelsun's product can quickly become a competitive advantage, attracting customers while keeping them warm at a lower environmental cost. Its specific double combustion technology generates 5 hours of heat with only 10 kg of pellets while producing only 40 grams of ash.

Implementation Stories
Edelsun by Edelsun
Implemented by Le Prestige Bar in Neuchatêl (Switzerland) in 2019
Le Prestige Bar in Neuchâtel decided in autumn 2019 to equip its terrace with Edelsun patio heaters, as the municipality of Neuchâtel only allows devices that run on renewable energy. It started by installing 4 units before gradually equipping his 250 m2 terrace with 15 of heaters.
Result
By using Edelsun heaters instead of gas heaters on a 250 m2 terrace since 2019, their customer has saved more than 240 tons of CO2.
