Pellet stoves are gaining traction in homes across North America due to their efficiency, comfort, and sustainability.

This article explores the benefits of pellet stoves, what pellets are, and how they are produced. It also covers ducted pellet stoves, their uses, and the advantages they bring.
Pellets: sustainable fuel
Pellets are small cylinders of compressed biomass made mainly from wood waste, sawdust, and shavings. They can also be produced from other organic materials such as hazel shells and agricultural byproducts.
Pellet production begins with crushing and drying the raw material, followed by high-pressure compression to form uniform pieces. These pellets are dense and have low moisture content, making them a compact and efficient energy source.

Advantages of pellet stoves
Pellet stoves offer several benefits. They operate with high efficiency, often achieving energy conversion rates well above 90%. A small amount of pellets yields a substantial amount of heat, making them economical and environmentally friendly.
Compared with traditional wood stoves, pellet stoves emit fewer greenhouse gases, contributing to a cleaner environment and better indoor air quality. They also provide precise temperature control, helping maintain a consistent indoor climate.
Pellets are easy to store and transport due to their compact form and light weight. They produce minimal ash compared with firewood, and many modern pellet stoves offer remote programming and control for convenience and time savings.
Pellets come from wood waste and other renewable organic materials, supporting sustainable energy practices.

Ducted pellet stoves
Ducted pellet stoves are designed to heat multiple rooms or zones within a home. They feature hot air ducts that connect to heating distribution systems such as ducts or radiators, allowing heat to spread to different areas efficiently. Ducted models enable effective heating of various rooms, saving energy and lowering costs.
These stoves reduce cold spots, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere throughout the home. They also offer greater control over the heating system by adapting to a home’s specific needs and ensure more even heat distribution, which lowers overall heating expenses compared with traditional setups.
