    How Long Should A Pellet Stove Last?

    My austroflam Insert is 12 years old. I see no reason to replace it either. I like your tag line. Sounds like my kind of place.

    Gas ventless wall heater or electric heater??????

    I'll second that. I have a 35,000 btu Rinai wall unit. It was here when we bought the house 10 years ago. Not a lick of trouble yet.
