First day with our brand new pellet stove |
At $1800 my wood burner paid for itself in the middle of the 2nd year. 4k takes a bit longer.
My brother installed a pellet stove this year and likes it. I like wood better and I don't need a generator to run it when the power goes off.

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?
Almost 15. And, it was a mechanical failure. The pellets jammed the feeder.

so? You don't think that they've improved things that detect that or rectify it if it's really a problem?

That sounds like an awfully high rate of consumption. I think you may want to back down the feeder a bit.

firewood is cheap where I live, its a lot less than buying pellets from a retailer.
Also I dont trust human engineering enough to have a automated wood burning stove in my basement running say 5 months out of the year..especially when the stove was made in china or built with parts that where manufactured there.

When I got home about 7 last night it had been running for about 8 hours with the feeder rate all the way up to 6.. My firend came over to look at it and gave me a few tips.. first thing he said is what you did.. WAYYY to high.. turned it down to just under 3. and put in another bag about 830 last night (it wasnt empty, but could take it) since I've turned it down it has been better.. I might even come down a little more to maybe 2.5
