Yeah my problem is that boomerangs on me about 50% of the time. So I’m darned if I do, darned if I don’t
 
Left pellet stove up a notch in garage,will be toasty in the morning. This is the first winter im running it continous, i usually switch to electric at night,as no doors open and shop is usually warm. But seeing as its so mild, and the pellets are paid for,i decided to just burn em. House has 40 days worth, shop has 50 ish.

I don’t know but I saw where the brownies may have KO’d Mahomes for next week, I guess they knocked his arse out and he’s got a bad concussion, takes at least a week to clear concussion protocols so he may not be available next week

Those pellet stoves worth the price compared to regular wood stoves?

Depends. $1900 for the pellet stove, 4-500 for chimney. Then you have to buy the pellets. I got the garage one used for 500.
Needs electricity to run,so no good for backup heat. 1500 watt inverter will run it,once its lit its only 200 watts. Has an ignitor that takes some power to get it going.

if firewood is readily available then go with a high end woodstove,some of them are pretty efficient.

i prefer the pellets, dump in two bags every other day. Takes 1/2 hour to slide 90 bags into basement. 3600 pounds all stacked up and ready to burn.
1/2 to cool down,most of the ashes go in garbage can,and 2 minutes with a shop vac.

I assume those cost are $CAD?

Most stoves here that size run around $1200 USD new (not including chimney) and 40 lb bags of premium pellets are $4-6.

$5.69 a bag if i buy a lift,2400 lbs. i bought three last sept. Made a slide, backed trailer up to basement window and slid em right in. Used to carry them in one bag at a time down the stairs. For the shop, i store them in quonset, unload trailer with forklift.

i will add,the stove is in the basement,and its toasty. House is way warmer compared to electric heat.

Thats everything,including plumbing? I would hope so.

thought being married to a woman was difficult, wait until you get a wood fired boiler.

Nope, just the outdoor unit and the corresponding indoor piece. Plumbing and install extra.
 
For those of us fortunate enough not to live in the land if ice and snow, why would you want/need a $20,000 “outside” furnace unit?

I am familiar with central heat & air, wood stoves and fireplaces, but nothing operated outside in the $20,000 price range.

Please, educate me.

That’s nuts. I installed a Heil dual full heat pump/gas furnace and AC system that takes care of my entire 3500 sq.ft. house in Memphis 2 years ago for only $12k.
 
Oudoor boilers here sell for $7500 average. Lifespan of 10 years. Cant burn em low, they have to run hot. The cooler the smoke, the more corrosive. Burns out the water jacket.

saw an outdoor pellet burning setup designed for bulk pellets, in a sea can for 11 grand.
