FUEL EFFICIENT

Wood pellet stoves are a clean burning and efficient source of heat energy. Many wood pellet stoves on the market have been rated to have burning efficiencies higher that 85% and have no issues meeting stringent local and federal air quality standards. Compared to wood stoves that have substantial soot and ash buildup after one use, pellet stoves can run for weeks at a time and still not produce as much ash as one days use with a woodstove.

ECO-FRIENDLY

The wood pellets that fuel these stoves are made from recycled sawdust that would otherwise be disposed of in landfills or incinerated in waste burners typically found at sawmills. Wood is also a natural renewable resource and by selecting wood pellets as a fuel source you are helping to recycle forestry related waste byproducts.

CONSISTENT HEAT SOURCE

Pellet stoves deliver the wood pellet fuel into the stoves combustible chamber on a regular and consistent basis. What this means is that you have a very steady and consistent source of heat for up to 72 hours before you have to refill the hopper with more wood pellets. No more feeding a woodstove chopped wood every couple of hours and facing hot and cold heating cycles as the wood burns strong then dies out.

HEATING CONVENIENCE

Fill up the hopper, start and go. That’s it! No more messing around with kindling or chopped wood, stoking, and refilling every couple of hours. You can even run pellet stoves connected to a thermostat to regulate the temperature. Pellet stoves offer true heating convenience without the hassles associated with traditional wood burning stoves.

COST EFFECTIVE

Pellet stoves are the most efficient solid fuel source on the planet, and because the pellets are made from a wood waste product the cost is very inexpensive to run a pellet stove compared to other heating sources. The rising cost of other energy sources like electricity, oil and natural gas have also added to the gaining popularity of pellet stoves.

EASY TO CLEAN

Pellet stoves are simple to clean. Most have simple lift out ash pans that need to be dumped every couple of weeks, depending upon your usage patterns. Furthermore, there is no wood pile mess, bark scraps, or having to sweeping out piles and piles of ash.

Wood Pellet Production Guide

Peter Emerson asked:


Wood cook stoves have been used for hundreds of years. Before the advent of electricity, people cooked all of their food in wood cook stoves. Wood cook stoves are still used in many parts of the world, such as Central and South America. Some people still choose to use wood cook stoves to conserve energy or to get the great taste of food cooked over an open fire.

Wood cook stoves are large, elaborately designed structures. They need to include room for the wood, so they are bigger than gas or electric stoves. Wood cook stoves often look similar to conventional stoves. They have the oven at the bottom and cooking ranges on the top of the oven. Many wood cook stoves even have a hood area not unlike those found on conventional ovens that can be used for storage. Wood cook stoves are made of high quality cast iron for durability. Cast iron can with stand the heat produced by the fire and will not show external signs of wear and tear. The wood fire heats both the oven and the cooking ranges.

Wood cook stoves are great for energy conservation. Wood is less expensive than gas or electricity. People can find their own wood, or they can buy firewood from a store. Many people in rustic areas use wood cook stoves in order to remain completely self-sufficient. They can fuel the stove with wood from their property and not even have to use electricity.

Many people like the flavor of food cooked over wood. A large number of restaurants use wood cook stoves to prepare their food. Food cooked over wood has a more natural and distinct flavor than wood cooked with gas or electricity.

Wood cook stoves are a great alternative to conventional gas or electric stoves. They save energy and can make food taste much better.
