terryjd said: (quoted from post at 20:03:43 03/04/08) Wouldn't ask here but you guys and gals are such a smart group I could get some answers here. Price of oil going up so high, for heating oil 2 weeks ago I paid 97 cents a liter, thats about $3.88 a US gallon, Yes Canadian here. I have to use oil to heat where I live, no natural gas lines near me, propane just about as expensive. Last year oil 73 cents a liter, about $2.92 a US Gallon, cost me about $3000.00 to heat this big old house last year.
I have been checking into Wood Pellet Stoves, a friend of mine got one 2 years ago and their oil bills use to run about the same as mine. Now for the last 2 years they have used about $1100.00 in wood pellets and just a bit of oil. Savings about $1,500.00 a year.
Guess my questions are, any of you use Wood Pellet stoves? What brand is the best? Have been told Hammond brand is the best. A 55,000 btu stove will heat a 1800sq ft home? I can run a couple of ducts from my cold air return to 10 feet infront of the stove, leave the furnace fan running and it will circulate the heat through the house? Anything else I need to know? Sorry for the long post but I need to do use something besides oil heat would like to know your thoughts before I spend $5,000.00 on a stove and install.
I bought a (40,000 btu)1200 classic bay Quad-dra-fire stove(made in wash.state)about 5 years ago and could not be happier.It has auto ingition and thermostat.I pay around $165 per ton(50 bags per skid 40 pounds each).coobie

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
