Q: Will a pellet stove heat an entire house?

• <div><p>Yes, a pellet stove can heat an entire house&mdash;as long as you choose one that&rsquo;s large enough for that purpose. For context, pellet stoves generate between 8,000 and 90,000 British Thermal Units (BTUs), and you&rsquo;ll need 30 to 60 BTUs per square foot, depending on your climate zone.

Q: What is the most efficient type of wood stove?

• <div><p>Soapstone wood stoves hold onto heat the longest, which means you can burn less fuel and enjoy the warmth for longer. Additionally, catalytic wood stoves include a catalytic combustor that can reduce emissions and create a cleaner burn no matter what the stove is made of. Of course, the most efficient wood stoves also tend to be costlier up front&mdash;but they can still save you money in the long run. </p></div>

Q: Do electric fireplaces use a lot of electricity?

• <div><p>Some types of electric fireplaces use more electricity than others. Models that produce 1,500 watts will have more of an effect on your heating bill than 750-watt models. </p><p>Electric fireplaces use an average of $1.85 of electricity every eight hours. These minimal operational costs aren&rsquo;t likely to make a big difference in your electric bill&mdash;unless you&rsquo;re using it as a primary heating source for your home and it&rsquo;s running most of the time.</p></div>

I own and operate a family business. What you see and who you meet and hire is who will be doing the work. I work myself with my son and my wife and 1 loyal guy I've had since day 1. I've been in this line of work for 25 years doing projects of every type specializing in cabinets, trim and higher end work, meticulate jobs and also exterior work. I do all types of finish carpentry, trim d, doors , wi dows , wall repairs and many other tasks. I am considered the very top of the line among all the painting community in the area. Very professional, accommodating and extremely neat and clean. Countless referrals and pics. I've been busy the past few years without advertising or taking g on new work just from repeat customers, regular yearly scheduled work, word of mouth and the couple builders I work for but lately the travel is getting too much for me as the builders are starting to get farther away so im currently taking on new work\n.
