does anyone have a biomass boiler?

Can you tell me about them? has it reduced your heating bills? we are on oil and are currently using two tanks a year at a cost of £1200 a tank . We live in a wood and have five acres of our own mature woodland and so every year at least two trees fall and can then be harvested (although wouldn't want to chop any down). Would this be enough to run the boiler?

Haven't got one myself but have looked into it - was quoted approximate cost to get one installed of £17,000.

If you are saving £2400 a year on fuel then that looks quite economic.
