Benefits and Information

Wood Stoves

For a cozy home this winter, nothing quite has the advantages of a wood stove. The fuel is economical and ecological, the look is attractive, and the heat is warm. In fact, most people who have lived in a home heated by wood say that wood heat is warmer than other kinds of heat. That may seem impossible, but wood heat really does make for a comfortable home during the winter. They can be a cost-effective heating system in the cold months. They offer independence and security when the power goes out. Firewood is readily available in most North American communities. And they add a touch of old-world design elegance to any setting. Another reason to burn wood is that it is obviously a renewable resource. Burning wood puts a person back in touch with the basics of life.

Pellet Stoves

These are small electric stoves that burn small pieces of recycled sawdust that are compressed into pellets. There are a number of advantages to using wood-pellet stoves. They are extremely efficient, produce very little waste, and use inexpensive fuel. Wood-pellet stoves are fueled by tightly compressed pieces of sawdust. The user merely has to add the pellets to the hopper, and the mechanical auger moves pellets to the fire as needed. Wood-pellet stoves have average efficiency ratings of 80- to 85-percent. The pellets are burned so completely that they hardly give off any smoke, meaning that they only need a small pipe leading outside to dispose of excess smoke. Since wood stoves are so efficient, they hardly produce any waste. An entire 40-pound bag of pellets produces less than a cup of ashes. People can use a wood pellet stove for months without having to empty the ashes.

Gas Stoves

Gas stoves are convenient, clean burning, easy to install and look great in any room. Aside from their looks, gas fireplace stoves have practical advantages, as well. For instance, they help you save money on your electric bill. Since they are fully gas-powered, they can still operate even if you lose your electricity do to a power outage. Gas fireplaces replicate the look and feel of wood fireplaces without the aggravation. These fireplaces are easy to operate, as they are activated by a wall switch or remote control.
