Pellet stoves are growing in popularity and for good reason. When compared to a wood burning stove, pellet stoves are cleaner, less work, and easier to use. While many pellet stove users are attracted to the idea of consistent heating costs or putting waste products to good use, everyone is interested in choosing a pellet stove that will provide maximum heating efficiency.
The efficiency rating on pellet stoves continues to improve every year. Several new models of pellet stoves hit the market in the past year that offers higher heating efficiency than older models…along with a few convenient features.
QUARA-FIRE PELLET STOVES
Quadra-Fire pellet stoves offer a clean-burning, eco-friendly home heating alternative. Available in a wide assortment of models and units, Quadra-Fire offers the perfect pellet burning stoves for any home, cabin, or living space. Like most pellet stoves on the market, the Quadra Fire pellet stove works by burning wood pellets. These pellets are made from varying types of wood particulate and sawdust that is left over from the production of wood products. This recycled wood is compressed into small chunks measuring about a quarter-inch in width and varying in length from around an inch to a half-inch. These pellets are packaged into 40-pound bags and sold commercially through hardware stores and heating retailers. Below are some examples of the efficiency available in these products:
a. Quadra-Fire Classic Bay 1200 uses three independent feed rates and provides an adjustable convection blower to moderate the stove’s heat output from 15,000 to 40,000 BTUs.
