Pellet stoves vs Wood stoves
Comments (8)We built a garage last summer that required the elimination of several rather large hardwoods (big maple and several smaller red oaks). We had it cut into to 16" rounds and picked away at the pile last fall/winter. We did OK, but we weren't really serious about dealing with the bounty as we were otherwise occupied with DIY finish work inside the garage. We were on vacation last week and we spent 5-6 mornings in the company of our splitter to get the rounds split and stacked before it rotted on the ground. It wasn't unpleasant work at all. We managed to get nearly 4 cord put up for the '09/'10 heating season and beyond (we have seasoned wood put up for the coming season). We have a few more small piles of rounds to address in the coming weeks, but it's pretty much under control. And we had a good time doing it, laughing and joking as we stacked and finding an easy rhythm for the teamwork of splitting. OK, I'll get to the point. We have just under 3 acres that were wooded when we built our home in '91. Our "first major appliance" was our Woodstock Soapstone stove. In the years hence we've never purchased wood. We've simply used what was taken down for the house, garage, or landscaping projects. And we've had plenty for our needs. We set the thermostats at the lowest setting and use wood to keep the house as cozy as we want or to simply "take the chill off" when it's raw outside. We have a splitter and honestly, the hardest part of the operation is just DECIDING that we're going to deal with wood. Once we make the decision the work is pretty easy and the feeling of accomplishment is terrific. I live in New England, too. And there have been a number of stories of pellet manufacturers being stretched beyond capacity by the volume of orders. I'm all for eliminating the middleman whenever possible....See Morescott pellet stove

Comments (4)TJ; Still having problems? I had to take my Scott stove apart to find out why it wasn't working, after it was given to me because it was blowing fuses. I don't have a book for the stove. But - there should be 2 wires for the fans, which are all connected together, and 2 wires for the auger. If you just turn the stove on, just the fans will run, until you push the Auger Mode button, then the auger will cycle. There may also be some connections to overtemp devoces - I can't remember. I will be taking my stove apart after the winter, to get part numbers from the auger motor, so I can get a spare. If you are still stuck then, I'll gather up more detailed information about the circuit board and it's connections.
