Heat Smarter And Save Money Want to heat smarter and save money? Then read on! Pellet Stoves is the way to heat today, because they are safe, economical, and reduces our dependency on oil and gas. Pellet Stoves are safe compared to any other supplemental heat sources. “More than 1/8th of residential fires are related to the use of supplemental room heaters, such as wood- and coal-burning stoves, kerosene heaters, gas space heaters, and electrical heater.” http://www.usfa.dhs.gov/citizens/all_citizens/home_fire_prev/manufactured/spaceheaters-mh.shtm Pellet Stoves produce virtually no creosote, as the ash content is approximately at 98% per a 40lb bag of pellets burned. http://pelletheat.com/core/aboutpellets/ Economically, Pellet Stoves out beat any other supplemental heat sources by far, and with minimal start-up fees. Wood Stoves have minimal start-up fees but, the cons are just not worth it, I know by experience.

Splitting, stacking and lugging in wood are lots of work. There is the possibility of contaminating your house by storing the wood in your house, as there could be bugs in the wood. Solar Energy would be a great way of using energy, but the cost is astronomical. Also, the major disadvantages of Solar Energy are: The sunlight is not always consistent on the earth’s surface. Factors include: Weather, time of year, time of day, and location. Large solar farms can also harm the desert ecosystems if not monitored properly. http://www.eia.doe.gov/kids/energyfacts/sources/renewable/solar.html Cost of solar heating: An average home uses approximately 25kwh per day, in the US. Let’s say, you are able to lower your kilowatts to 15kwh per day. At $4.86 usd per watt is only...
