Q: How long will a 40-lb bag of pellets burn?

• <div><p>A 40-pound bag of wood pellets can provide a solid 24 hours or so of burn time, though the exact length may vary. If you&rsquo;re using your pellet stove as an exclusive heat source during the winter, you&rsquo;ll need an estimated 100 to 150 of those 40-pound bags, depending on how hot you like to keep your home, its size, the climate, and other factors.</p></div>

Q: Do I need a chimney liner if I don’t have any issues?

• <div><p>A chimney liner is a good thing to invest in regardless of if you have issues or not. Chimney liners increase the safety of your fireplace. Without a chimney liner, the gasses that get emitted during burning could eventually damage the masonry and create a major fire hazard in your home. </p></div>

Q: Can I repair a pre-fabricated fireplace myself?

• <div><p>Minor cleaning and maintenance are DIY-friendly, but professionals should handle structural or electrical repairs.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to run a pellet stove?

• <div><p>This will depend on the size of the pellet stove and how much of the house you&rsquo;re heating, i.e. just one room or the entire house. Many pellet stoves use anywhere from 80 to 345 watts of electricity per hour. In terms of the pellets, a 40-pound bag can cost $5 to $9. A bag of pellets will burn for about 24 hours.</p></div>

Q: What time of year is firewood cheapest?

• <div><p>Firewood tends to be cheaper during the spring and summer. When the demand for firewood is lower during these seasons, many firewood companies offer lower prices and added discounts. In addition, the supply of firewood is typically higher in these months, meaning the quality is typically higher as well. </p></div>

"I was impressed with Chuck from Shamrock Chimney. He was realistic in his discussion and went thru various options from converting to a gas fireplace to wood inserts. He discussed the issues with the existing field stone face and converting to a two way fireplace. He certainly made me comfortable to consider Shamrock should the project move forward."
