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: How long does it take for creosote to build up in a chimney?

• <div><p>The time it takes for creosote to build up in a chimney can vary depending on how often you use your fireplace and the wood you burn. Creosote can start accumulating after just a few fires, especially if you burn unseasoned wood or allow fires to smolder. Regularly using the fireplace without proper maintenance can lead to significant creosote buildup within a few months. To prevent hazardous buildup, have your chimney inspected and cleaned at least once a year.</p></div>

Q: Should the pilot light always be on in a gas fireplace?

• <div><p>Depending on the model of your fireplace, you can leave your pilot light on year-round. This does use a small amount of fuel, so you&rsquo;ll save on your energy bill by turning off the pilot light seasonally. Keep in mind that some gas fireplace models don&rsquo;t have a standing pilot light.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to run a gas fireplace for one hour?

• <div><p>Running a gas fireplace costs approximately $0.35 per hour for natural gas and $0.62 per hour for propane, though these figures can vary significantly based on fuel prices in your area. On average, the annual cost to run a gas fireplace is between $400 and $640. The exact impact on your utility bill depends on several factors, including how often you use it, the size of the room you're heating, and the fireplace's BTU rating. Some models with a constantly running pilot light will consume a minimal amount of energy even when off, although many modern fireplaces do not require one. If you are looking for a more energy-efficient option, consider an electric fireplace.</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>

We had a chimney fire in February and we had them come inspect the chimney damage and stove condition. They installed a new stainless chimney liner and new Jotul wood stove. We couldn’t be happier with the service and purchase. Top notch experience! We highly recommend!
