Pellet Stove Inserts Are a Great Alternative Heat Source

Pellet stove inserts are a great alternative heat source for keeping your home heated during the cold months. If you choose a freestanding pellet stove or the insert both use pressed sawdust pellets as the fuel. The difference in what you choose is based on personal preference or the available space you have.

People that use pellet stove inserts or the stove itself report that they see a large drop in their energy bills. These are both economical sources of heat that more people are choosing to use every year.

Pellet stove inserts give the look and feel of a fireplace rather than a stove. Whereas, the freestanding stove obviously gives more of a look of a stove. The insert type is generally chosen for a bedroom, kitchen or family room. The installation of an insert is more complicated than a freestanding stove. Therefore, they are usually easier to install in new homes or during a large remodeling job.

Some pellet stove inserts come with a thermostat that allows the homeowner to set the exact temperature they want. The thermostat works with the insert and allows pellets to be fed to the stove whenever it needs it. Many people like this feature because it means they do not have to stand there all the time and add pellets.

Another positive feature of pellet-stove inserts is that the pellets burn clean and is thus much cleaner than wood burning stoves. You can find these inserts in many different sizes, just choose one that fits your current situation.

You will find that most pellet stove inserts share some of the same features. There is not a lot of work that needs to be done once they are installed. Fill the hopper with the pellets and set the thermostat and that is about it. BTU's range from 14,000 to 60,000. If you have a small room, you want heated then do not get a large insert.

Other features that you can get with your pellet stove inserts are blowers, remote control and automatic lighting.  Some units come with different size hoppers so they do not have to be filled as often.

Pellet stove inserts are a great way for homeowners to save money on their energy costs. Take some time and look into one for your home today.
