Brief Introduction about Wood Pellet Stoves
Informations about The Wood Pellet Stoves
Wood pellet stoves combine high technology with renewable fuel to efficiently heat living spaces and entire homes. Modern wood pellet stoves burn fuel cleanly and comply with air quality regulations. In areas where fuel is cheap and readily available, wood-pellet stoves offer an attractive alternative to natural gas, coal, fuel oil, or electric heating systems. As professional wood pellet machine manufacture, we can supply you various kinds of pellet machine.
How Wood Pellet Stoves Work
Wood pellet stoves provide heat to a room or building from the combustion of fuel pellets made from compressed sawdust or other wood product waste materials. An automated fuel delivery system consisting of a hopper, auger, fans and electronic controls feeds the pellets into the stove's burn chamber. The fuel feed rate can be manually controlled, but is usually controlled by an automatic timer and thermostat system. Fans circulate air through a heat exchanger and into the room to provide convective heat.
Installation of Wood Pellet Stoves
Clearance between the stove, walls, floors and ceilings must be sufficient to comply with local building and fire safety codes. The pellet stove should be installed on a fire-proof platform. The stove must be vented to the outside by means of a pipe through a wall or a liner inside an existing chimney flue.
Advantages of Wood Pellet Stoves
Wood pellet stoves require infrequent refueling as compared to wood-burning stoves. A hopper full of pellets will feed the stove for many hours. They burn fuel efficiently and cleanly, so they can be used in some areas that have wood-burning restrictions for clean air compliance. The wood pellets are a renewable resource composed of wood products that might otherwise be wasted. Because they primarily produce convective heat, the outside of the stove does not get as hot as a wood-burning stove, so it is safer to use in houses with small children.
Disadvantages of Wood Pellet Stoves
Wood pellet stoves rely on many moving parts and electronic controls for proper operation, so they require more frequent maintenance than wood-burning stoves. In addition, the fuel supply auger and fans make noise during the operation of the stove. Since a wood-pellet stove relies on electric power for its fuel delivery and air circulation systems, it will not work during an electrical power outage unless a backup generator or battery supply is available.
Economics of Wood Pellet Stoves
Wood pellet stoves are an economical choice for space heating in areas with an abundant and inexpensive supply of wood pellets. If fossil fuel prices escalate, the relative economics of wood-pellet stoves will improve.
