I bought a 55-shp10 about a week ago on clearance at lowes. I have been using it for a few days now to see how it heats, I have not run it all night yet but I start it at about five in the morning run it at 4-4 till it gets to about 70 than turn it down to 1-3 i am heating a little less than 1000 feet and even at that setting it drove me out of the house yesterday with the premier pellets I used it got to about 82 temps about 30 outside, after reading about trying other brands to see what burns best for you I tried lg today and it is only getting to about 76 same temp outside so is the premier a better pellet?
hello new here and have a ?

FWIW, one week and 4to5 bags of pellets is a little too soon to get an idea of which pellets are best. Give it some time, make notes on outside temps,stove settings,inside temps taken from the same place...to be as consistant as possible. After doing this and evaluating your findings then trying different pellet brands and doing it again you will get a better idea of what works and what doesn't. Hope this helps, search and read around this forum, there is awealth of knowledge here.
