How Can A Pellet Stove Save Me Money?

What is a Pellet Stove?

Pellet Stoves use wood or corn pellets as its primary heat source. These pellets are tightly compacted and dense which causes it to be burned very efficiently and powerfully.

The cost of pellets (after adjusting for inflation) has actually gone down in price! This is a stable source of fuel produced in the USA and Canada and is readily available today...

Where are pellets made?

Wood fuel and Corn fuel pellets are made from natural renewable waste by-products manufactured right here in the USA.

Consistent production from a natural, renewable resource means more stable pricing – less volatility than with fossil fuels. This makes forecasting the cost of your home heating more predictable and manageable

Fuel pellets are a 100% all natural product made from the by-products of lumber manufacturing that otherwise could be destined for the landfill. Pellets and firelogs are a renewable source of energy, we will never run out.

The emission rate for pellet stoves is approximately 1.2 grams per hour, which falls well below the nationwide EPA regulations of no more than 7.5 grams per hour.

More efficient pellet stoves mean less pollution than from wood stoves. Even if cordwood is available it is necessary to burn more of it to produce the same amount of heat as pellets because pellets have a lower moisture content, therefore burn hotter than cordwood. On a per pound basis pellets can put out 3 to 4 times more heat than cordwood, which translates into fewer emissions released into the atmosphere.
