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. If you&rsquo;re unsure which size pellet stove to buy, reach out to a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/wood-stove-repair/">local pellet or wood stove repair company</a>.</p></div>

Q: How do I know if my wood stove catalyst is bad?

• <div><p>When your wood stove catalyst goes bad, it can cause your stove to produce less heat or run slower than normal. You might also notice thick black smoke coming out of your chimney. If you notice any of these signs, contact a professional <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/who-installs-wood-burning-stoves.htm">who installs wood-burning stoves</a> and repairs them for an inspection and fix.</p></div>

Q: Where can I buy replacement stove parts?

• <div><p>You can find replacement stove parts for popular brands at local hardware stores or major retailers. However, you might find the best deal by directly buying online from the manufacturer. While there are some universal parts, the manufacturer can also help you find parts that are specific to your stove&rsquo;s make and model.</p></div>

Q: What’s the best time of year to clean a chimney?

• <div><p>The best time to clean your chimney is before you actually need to use it. For most of us, that means getting your chimney cleaned in the spring, summer, or early fall. You may find that chimney sweeps are booked up when the winter months fade and the first round of customers begin to hire them for cleanings, but you also don&rsquo;t want to wait until too late in the fall when chimney sweeps might be responding to other customers who waited until the last minute. Thus, the safest bet may be the summer. </p></div>

Q: What type of wood is best to burn in a wood stove?

• <div><p>Hardwoods such as oak, maple, and hickory are the best types of wood to burn in a wood stove. These woods burn hotter and longer than softwoods, producing less creosote and fewer emissions. Hardwoods provide a more efficient and cleaner burn, which helps maintain better air quality and reduces the frequency of cleaning and maintenance required for your stove.</p></div>
