Q: How long do wood stove fans last?

• <div><p>The average life span of a thermoelectric fan operating seasonally is two to three years. However, the life span of a wood stove fan depends on its quality, usage, and maintenance. Regular cleaning of the blades and ensuring the fan operates within its recommended temperature range can help prolong its life span. </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’s the difference between an outdoor wood furnace vs. an outdoor wood boiler?

• <div><p>The main difference between an outdoor wood furnace versus an outdoor wood boiler is what each appliance is heating. An outdoor wood furnace burns wood to create heat, which warms the air and moves it through the ducts in your home. An outdoor wood boiler uses the heat from burning wood to warm water, which goes through pipes to radiators in the home.</p></div>

Q: Can you close off a fireplace?

• <div><p>Yes, you can close off a fireplace both temporarily and permanently with extremely wide price ranges. Temporary solutions involve fireplace plugs that can be inflated to block air and deflated to open the fireplace, covers, and boards. Permanent methods of shutting off fireplaces usually involve bricking up the fireplace or covering it with drywall. No matter the method, it&rsquo;s probably best to hire a professional.</p></div>

Q: Why doesn’t my chimney flue close?

• <div><p>If you haven&rsquo;t had your chimney cleaned in some time, soot and grime can build up, making it difficult for the lever to release to close the flue. When this happens, locate the lever and clean it thoroughly. If this doesn&rsquo;t help, consult with a fireplace repair pro to examine it for you.</p></div>
