Unb is an idiot, and, normal smoke detectors do not work.



Smoke detectors don't work against "very thick" smoke? Lol.

the only problem about a pellet stove from what I've heard is that they have a fan which requires electric, so if the power goes out, they are very ineffective.


That's hearsay, so take it for what it's worth.

Reapist, you've lived in WA for like 20 years, don't you think maybe the pellet stove technology has improved just a bit since then?

i had accidentally left the air intake at the lowest setting and my burn pot got clogged and nasty black smoke started building up in the stove...the exhaust fan took care of it pretty well though.

Same with my parent's stove, even when they had a computer malfunction that caused too many pellets to drop at once on the first lighting.
