This kind of stove is simple to maintain and doesn't lose heat due to air circulation, making it an excellent alternative to traditional fireplaces.

Pellet stoves offer an alternative to wood-burning fireplaces. Instead of wood they use small wood pellets, which are sold in 40-pound bags. The pellets are stored in a hopper and then fed by an electric auger. The stove then ignites the pellets by using an inbuilt blower that draws in air for combustion and releases exhaust fumes through a venting system. The blower can also be turned off if the fire is burning on its own. This is convenient for those who don't want to add heating. Freestanding stoves and inserts can be efficient heat sources for supplementary heating, but they do not provide the same warmth as in-floor heating systems. Both require a power source to run fans and other components that help distribute heat. If you live in an area where power interruptions are frequent it is best to select a model with backup power.
