WT10 Wood Burning Heater

Wood Waste Technology
Turn your weekly wood waste into free workshop heating. The WT10 suits medium to large joinery and timber operations generating enough offcuts each week to keep a 300,000 BTU/hr heater running without supplementary fuel.

Typically chosen by

  • Joinery and timber workshops with a consistent weekly output of wood waste looking to eliminate or reduce heating bills
  • Operations producing MDF, chipboard, hardwood, or softwood offcuts who want a compliant way to dispose of waste and heat the building at the same time
  • Businesses in smoke control areas, or those needing to demonstrate Clean Air Act compliance, who cannot run a simple open-burn solution

Key specification considerations

Heat Output
300,000 BTU/hr (89 kW)
Rated sufficient to heat workshops of up to 7,500 ft², though actual coverage will depend on insulation, ceiling height, and draughts — worth discussing your building with us before specifying.
Weekly Waste Throughput
800–1,250 kg per week
This is the fuel demand as well as the disposal rate — your workshop needs to be generating roughly this volume of burnable waste each week to run the heater efficiently.
Accepted Waste Types
MDF, chipboard, hardwood, softwood offcuts
Clean Air Act Compliant
Yes — no oil or gas afterburner required
Compliance means this unit is approved for use in smoke control areas and does not require a supplementary fossil-fuel burner to meet emissions requirements, reducing both installation cost and ongoing running cost.

Dimensions
Contact IWM to confirm
Allow additional clearance around the unit for safe fuel loading, ash removal, and flue routing — speak to us before finalising your floor plan.
Weight
Contact IWM to confirm
Floor loading should be verified before installation; contact us and we will confirm the figure with the manufacturer.
Electrical Supply Required
Contact IWM to confirm
Electrical requirements vary by configuration; we will confirm phase and amperage when specifying.
Flue Specification
Contact IWM to confirm
The flue can exit through either the wall or roof and must discharge to open air outside the building; diameter and minimum height are confirmed at the specification stage.
Hopper/Feed Capacity
Contact IWM to confirm
Feed capacity affects how frequently the unit needs to be loaded; we will confirm this detail when discussing the installation with you.

Is this the right
machine for you?

Choose the WT10 Wood Burning Heater if...

  • Your workshop is between roughly 5,000 and 7,500 ft² and you need a heater sized to match
  • You are generating 800–1,250 kg of wood waste offcuts per week and want to use that as your primary fuel source
  • You need to demonstrate Clean Air Act compliance and cannot or do not want to install an oil or gas afterburner
  • You want a mid-range output without stepping up to the larger capital cost and fuel demand of the WT15

Consider an alternate model if...

  • Your workshop is smaller — under roughly 3,000–4,000 ft² or your weekly waste volume is below 800 kg, in which case the WT5 or WT2 is likely a better fit and will cost less to run
  • Your workshop exceeds 7,500 ft² or you have an unusually high heat demand, in which case the WT15 is worth discussing
  • Your waste output is inconsistent week to week — a heater sized around peak waste volumes may be underutilised for much of the year, and a smaller model may suit your baseline better
  • You are unsure whether your waste stream contains prohibited materials — we would want to confirm fuel suitability before specifying any model in this range
