The Benefits of a Pellet Stove

A Pellet Stove is a wonderful way to heat your home and is a great alternative to traditional fireplaces. Pellet stoves are a great option for homes that don't have chimneys or require a chimney. Instead, smoke and ash is expelled to the outside via an 80-120mm angled tube. These stoves can be installed virtually anywhere - near an outside wall, under a ceiling, etc. Although they're an efficient source of heat, they also tend to draw air from outside, so it's best to follow proper installation guidelines.

A pellet stove hopper holds approximately 35 to 130 pounds of pellets, which are deposited into the burn pot by an auger. Pellets can be loaded either on the top or bottom of the unit. Top-feed pellet stoves require frequent reloading, but are easier to maintain than bottom-feed models. Pellet stoves with a bottom-feed auger generally require less cleaning, but may not be as efficient.

The downside of pellet stoves is the expense of their fuel. Although pellets are cheaper than most fuels, the health crisis has caused the price of conventional energy to crash. This makes pellets more expensive per kilowatt-hour than gas and fuel oil. A single tonne of wood pellets contains as much energy as one m3 of gas or oil. Additionally, pellet stoves are cheaper than open fires and more eco-friendly, so you'll save money in the long run.

In addition to being environmentally friendly, a pellet stove can also provide relief for your central heating system during the coldest months. While pellets aren't cheap, the cost of electricity and pellets can be as low as 150 euros a year. The costs of pellets and electricity for a pellet stove can be more expensive if you want a more advanced model with a boiler and circulation of hot air. Purchasing your pellet stove through a professional can also save you taxes.

A pellet stove is a great option if you're worried about temperature, because they are easy to operate. The burn time ranges from four to twelve hours depending on the size of your hopper and the amount of heat that it produces. There's even a thermostat you can use to control the temperature and regulate the heat output. You can even control the heat by setting a thermostat so it can be set to a comfortable 70 degrees.

The lifespan of a pellet stove depends on how well you maintain it. Properly installed and maintained, a pellet stove should last ten to twenty years. Most pellet stoves fail due to poor maintenance. Using low grade fuel can clog the fan and blower. If you notice these problems, consider buying a higher grade fuel and cleaning the stove regularly. While pellet stoves can be extremely efficient, they are still subject to a few common issues. Another issue with pellet stoves is that they tend to be manufactured in colder climates.
