Two pellet heaters for less than 2,000 euros to distribute heat throughout the house
Pellet stoves are compact heating solutions that burn compressed biomass made from sawdust. They produce heat energy through radiation and spread it around the room with fans. The fumes exit outside via ducted piping, creating a heat recovery system that helps reduce CO2 emissions and makes them friendlier to the environment.
Homeowners can also choose ductile pellet stoves, which boost overall efficiency by not only warming the room where the device sits but also distributing warmth to other spaces in the home.
Beneath this option lies a practical third route: hydro stoves. Often called thermo stoves, these models heat larger areas more efficiently. They can service spaces up to 230 square meters, with heat usage reaching 85 to 95 percent of the energy produced.
Pellet stoves with an oven merge heating and cooking in one unit. These hydro stoves are typically pricier, yet they offer greater versatility because they can be integrated with radiators, underfloor heating, solar heating, and some models even provide domestic hot water.
The Velika line from this stove category is available at Leroy Merlin, offering several power and color options. Choices include 15 kW in white, 12 kW in red, 14.9 kW in brown, and 15 kW in black, all priced around €2,119 with an efficiency around 90 percent. Some models can connect to water radiators or underfloor heating to heat an entire house. For higher capacity, an 18 kW version is available in white, red, brown, and black at about €2,229.
