I haven’t started to burn yet. I need to give the ol girl a deep clean. I installed a heating and cooling pump unit like 2 years ago so I use that unless it get really cold then it can’t keep up and I use the stove. But I noticed pellet prices near me are outrageous this year. I like like 30 min south of Albany in NY and last year my dad bought Allegheny (junk) and they were like 239 or 250 a ton. This year they are 289. The place sold curren blend, Allegheny and dry creek. Sorry I just checked and curren blend are $289 Allegheny and dry creek are $299. To me that’s outrageous. Home Depot near me has green supreme (not sure which ones this year) but I tried the northeast blend last year and they seemed pretty good. But I can get cubex for 289 but I heard their quality has really gone down hill
Yeah I'm actually going to install one of those myself next year , tired of window AC and the extra heat option will help when needed.
I absolutely love it. I have a slab house so no basement but we have a think 18k in the living room feeding air into the kitchen and 3-9k’s in each of the bedrooms and they work awesome. I went with dakin. They seem to be pretty good. My father in does hvac for a living so we installed it and he got a deal on everything and it came to like $6500
That’s what I was thinking. Crap part is I’m pretty much stuck. I mean the green supremes I got last year were actually pretty good but
I actually liked the Blue Ridge blend. Assuming they burn the same as last year I'd have no problem roasting those for the season.
last year home depot was also selling green supremes appalachian blend...[pretty sure it was GS].. anyways, grabbed half dozen bags and have to say they we're not bad. less ash than I exspected.
Sorry it was Appalachian blend. I thought the burned pretty damm good. Not to ashy and good heat for $249 a ton.
We installed 1 outside unit -> 3 inside units two falls ago. Loved them so much we just had another outside unit -> 2 inside units installed, providing coverage for the remainder of the house. Mitsu hyper heats - love them, one of the best investments we ever made.
Sad but true story . I have 3 bags of pellets on hand , still waiting on my first pension check to get here hopefully at the end of the month. Don't take this wrong we're hanging in there but usually I'd have 2 1/2 tons inside by now . Fortunately the weather has been mild so just a few bags at a time of Chows
I hear ya about the pension check thing. Never seems to be enough $$$$ when ya need it.. And then something breaks or whatever that requires $$$$$
Same here I was surprised, I a from Neast CT just bought a couple bags but they burned ok. Maybe because I had a junk ton of VTs
