Despite which pellet stove brand that you decide to purchase, it will help to get as much general information on pellet stoves, their manufacturers and how each pellet stove differs. Generally, a pellet stove needs to be reloaded with wood pellets once every day. Most pellet stoves have a fuel storage hopper built in to them that will hold the wood pellets until they are utilized for fuel. Normally these storage hoppers will contain between 30 to 100 pounds of pellets when full. The amount of storage depends on the model of pellet stove that you have. The amount of storage will determine how often you will need to reload your pellet stove with wood pellets.

What is a Pellet Stove Exhaust?

A pellet stove has ingenious and convenient way of adding the wood pellets from the storage hopper into the combustion chamber to be burned. The pellet stove will add wood pellets on an “AS NEEDED” basis for burning. A feeder device that looks like a large cork screw or an auger will drop each of the wood pellets into the combustion chamber and it will only add them a few pellets at a time. The speed in which the wood pellets are fed from the hopper to the burner will determine the pellet stoves rate of heat output. The more advanced and costly models will utilize modern technology or a built in small computer and thermostat that will control the speed rate of the wood pellets automatically.

There are many advantages to heating with a pellet stove. Some advantages of pellet stoves are as follows:
  • The fuel for pellet stoves is compressed and conveniently bagged which will aid in the transport of the fuel source as opposed to natural wood which requires heavy lifting and mess.
  • Other than the glass door itself, most pellet stoves will stay cool to the touch on the outside
  • Pellet stoves will burn the fuel so completely and efficiently that it they will create very little dangerous chimney clogging creosote. No creosote means that there will not be any chimney fires.
However, as with most modern appliances and conveniences, there are also many potential disadvantages of pellet stoves that include the following:
  • A pellet stove is much more complex than a wood stove. The pellet stove has many more moving parts and if it eventually breaks down the repairs for a pellet stove is usually more costly.
  • In order to run the fans, pellet feeders and other moving parts, electricity is required. On average a pellet stove consumes 100 kilowatt-hours (kWh) which is the equivalent to $9 worth of electricity per month.
  • A black-out or power outage will cause your pellet stove to stop working. If your home is not equipped with some form of back-up power supply i.e. a generator or the like, the loss of electricity will mean no heat production and a potential of smoke entering your house. A battery back-up should be implemented and is a good idea.
