Pellets are the waste materials from trees otherwise know as sawdust and ground wood chips. Resins and binders occurring naturally in the sawdust hold the wood pellets together, so they contain no additives, therefore they “burn clean”. Pellet mills across North America produce over 600,000 tons of pellet fuel per year. They are available for purchase at stove dealers like us, building supply stores, feed stores and some discount stores. We sell pellets by the forty-pound bag or by the ton, which is fifty of the forty pound, bags.

The first appeal is their convenience. Bags of pellets stack compactly and store easily and a ton of pellets can be stored in a four feet wide, long and high, about half the size of a cord of wood. Another advantage is optimum burn efficiency. The small size of pellets allows for precisely regulated fuel feed. The environmental benefits besides clean burn is that pellets are a by-product not a primary user and reduce the costs and problems of waste disposal Pellets stoves do not require a chimney. Pellet stoves can be vented directly to an outside wall or they can go directly into an existing chimney or fireplace providing the venting complies with local coeds. You can heat a whole home with a pellet stove. The average 1500 sq. ft. home will use 3 to 5 tons a year.

There is a battery backup that can be purchased that will operate the stove for up to 8 hours before it needs to be recharges.

Pellet fuel is widely available. Over 70 pellet manufacturers across the U.S. and Canada produce a high-quality premium-grade fuel. We also sell the pellets at all our locations and you can either pick them up yourself or request a delivery by us. BUY PELLETS NOW!

Like any heating appliance, pellet stoves need some maintenance for efficient and safe operation. Most of the time this includes simply emptying the ash pan and vacuuming the appliance once or twice a week, depending upon the model and how often you use the stove. We also offer a yearly cleaning and maintenance service that can be performed before the heating service or after at a minimal cost.
