Pellet Stoves

If you’re trying to decide between a wood-burning stove and a gas-burning stove, the answer is a pellet-burning stove. Why? A pellet-burning stove offers the heat of the wood-burning stove with the clean-burning fuel of a gas stove. Pellet heating appliances are a favorite of the environmental conscience because they are considered a green product, but pellet-burning stoves are growing in popularity with the general public because of their efficiency and low-cost fuel. Here are a few more reasons why pellet stoves are a smart choice for buyers.

Simplicity

Pellet-burning stoves give the same feel as a wood-burning fireplace without the hassle. You simply load the pellets into a hopper and insert them, and they even burn pellets at the rate you set. The pellets still give you the crackle of a wood fire when they burn, so you don’t lose the atmosphere with a pellet stove.

Pellets are Affordable, Green, and Easy

Pellets are minute chunks made from wood chips, bark, and sawdust recycled from bits of wood left behind and sawmills. They are a renewable resource that is much easier to use and store than logs. Pellets use less space than logs. YA whole supply of pellets for an average-sized house takes up about the same space as a storage closet and will last the entire winter. Pellets can be stored in a dry area such as a basement, attic, or shed.

Heating Efficiency

Pellet stoves give you just as much heat as a gas or wood-burning stove. Despite the diminutive sites of the pellets, a pellet-burning stove can heat a space as much as two thousand square feet. You control the temperatures with a pellet stove, so you never burn more fuel than needed.

You can also save on your heating bill when using a pellet stove to zone-heat your house. Heat only the most used areas in your home and save money by only heating the rooms that need it.

You also can count on heat from a pellet stove during a blackout. During the winter months, temperatures can drop to dangerously low levels in Colorado, and if you can’t heat your home, you will have to seek shelter elsewhere. Having a pellet-burning stove means never having to leave your home during a winter power outage.

Aesthetics

Functionality and efficiency aren’t the only things going for pellet stoves; they can be a stylish addition to your home.
