Today more and more people are looking for cheaper ways to heat their homes. We're among them We have a Whitfield pellet stove in our vacation home and we love it. It's efficient and heats the home exceptionally well. We decided that we'd put a Whitfield pellet stove in our home and use gas as a secondary source of heat.
We knew from having the pellet stove in our vacation home that pellets are a bargain over burning wood, for many reasons. One is cost, one is clean up, and one is storage. Pellets run around $140 to $210 a ton. We read that even though pellets are initially more expensive than a cord of wood one ton of pellets equals burning about a cord and a half of wood. There is much less ash and more efficient burning of pellets than of wood. Whitfield pellet stoves have very easily cleaned ash containers. Storage is a major concern. We don't have the space at our home to store cords and cords of wood. However, we do have space in our garage to store a ton of pellets.
We looked at many of the different models offered by Whitfield pellet stoves. The Cascade is a beautiful free standing and high efficiency pellet stove. It delivers up to 30,000 BTU's per hour and a single load of pellets into the 60 pound hopper will burn for 40 hours. This stove will heat between 500 -1500 sq. ft. It can burn either premium or standard grade wood pellets.
A mid-size stove is the Whitfield Profile 20. Again, it delivers the efficiency and convenience Whitfield pellet stoves are famous for. It delivers up to 32,000 BTU heating and 37 continuous burning hours from it's 55 pound hopper. Like the larger Whitfield Cascade pellet stove this stove can burn both premium and standard wood grade pellets efficiently.
The larger Whitfield Profile 30 free standing stove holds up to 70 pounds in it's hopper which offers 41 hours of continuous burn. Like other Whitfield pellet stoves this stove has a wall mount thermostat which allows totally customized control of the room temperature.
When you're consider a pellet stove you should consider the customer service record of the company you're dealing with. Whitfield is known for outstanding customer service and for building quality and durable wood pellet stoves.
