    I’ve been heating my 30x30 shop with one and it throws off the heat.

    A few forum members have them, or have had them in the past.

    Do u have a PP60 or PP130?
    I just got one. It looks like an old Dansons HHPP32BD??
    The owner said it worked good and put out 50k BTUs until the control panel died. So he found another Pelpro stove for $200 (Cheaper than a new control panel) and gave me this one. His has an Accutron III Control Panel and it works fine.
    This stove has a good size hopper.
    There is no control panel in this one now?
    What do u think?

    Have one PP130 that has been retired , worked great just that I use my stoves as my primary heat and the cleaning was a bit much. Other than that was very happy with it and it kept my house fairly warm for a winter.

    Don't have a shop at home the wife and sister have a shop that really does not have much heat was thinking of resurrecting the PP130 to heat their shop, time is the only restraint and have to convince my Father in Law that it is safe as their shop is in my in-laws commercial rental building.
    It has been sitting in a damp basement for a few years but without spending to much coin should be able to get that sucker going again. Got to admit I do miss tinkering with that sucker and it cranks out some good heat.

    I had someone with a PelPro call me because his wasn't lighting. I told him he should ask on here as I was unfamiliar with the brand.

    If it is not lightning it probably needs a new igniter or his air damper rod is closed and there is no air getting into the burn pot.
