Q: What are the disadvantages of a pellet stove?

• <div><p>Although they provide heat, light, and atmosphere, pellet stoves require electricity to run certain parts, which some homeowners may find to be an unfortunate additional expense. They can also produce noises that some may find annoying, like a low rumble from the blower fan or its motor.</p></div>

Q: How long do pellets last in a pellet stove?

• <div><p>The burn time of pellets in a pellet stove depends on factors such as stove size, heat setting, and pellet quality. A full hopper of pellets can last anywhere from 12 to 48 hours. Lower heat settings will extend burn times, while higher settings will reduce them. It's important to choose high-quality pellets because they burn more efficiently and produce less ash, maximizing the stove's burn time and overall performance. Regularly monitoring the pellet level ensures consistent heat output and optimal efficiency from your pellet stove.</p></div>

Q: What wood should not be burned?

• <div><p>While hardwoods are the best woods to burn, a few types of woods should be avoided when burning. Wood that has not had time to season, or &ldquo;green wood,&rdquo; should be avoided. The extra water in the wood makes it smoke horribly, which is not a quality you want. Additionally, it&rsquo;s best to avoid any wood that is manufactured or has been treated, including coated or sealed wood, painted wood, or pressure-treated wood. These woods have chemicals that will be released into your air when burned and can cause health problems.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth fixing an old fireplace?

• <div><p>In many cases, it is worth repairing an old fireplace. You can repair any portion of the fireplace, and even extensive repairs will usually cost less than a full replacement. Most fireplace repairs cost around <b>$600 </b>and top out around <b>$2,500</b>. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-installing-fireplace-or-woodstove-cost.htm#">Replacing your fireplace</a> will cost around <b>$2,500</b> and reach as high as <b>$4,000</b>. Not only will fireplace repair save you money in most cases, but the process is also much less invasive and time-consuming, so you&rsquo;ll only have to set aside one day to be home for the work rather than multiple days.</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>

"My home has a chimney that was unsafe to use (cracked masonry liner). I dreaded the time and cost of a tear down and replacement. I contacted "Shamrock Chimney" and scheduled an appointment with their lead technician "Tony". He suggested a less costly and safer alternative (steel liner and a resealing of the outer brickwork. The work was performed over a two-day period. I am fully satisfied with the results. One thing I really apricate is the communication during the project. The "front office" would let me know by either phone or email when the project would start, and then Tony and would give me updates. All and all the whole process went smoothly. Also, this was my first time with "Angi", I hope to use their services again in the future."
