How to choose a pellet stove

About choosing a pellet stove

Pellet stoves are categorized based on the amount of heat output they have, being either high, or low.

The size of a pellet stove is not as important as the heat producing ability of the stove. Size basically determines the size of the storage area for pellets. A small stove may produce enough heat to heat a home, but will only be able to contain a day’s worth of pellets.
Compared to many other types of stoves, pellet stoves require much less installation clearance, and may be installed as close as three inches to a wall.

A pellet stove does need to be installed a certain distance away from combustibles such as drapes and doors, and it is advisable to install the pellet stove on a hearth pad.
