January Pellet Tally

2300 sq ft ranch style house, 2 stoves, 70 Bags = zero oil ( and nice 'n toasty to boot)

Tom C.

2250 SF, 1 stove, 34 bags and tiny bit of oil for about 5 mins on the coldest mornings just to ensure pipes wouldn't freeze.

2000 sq ft, 2 stoves, I have no idea= toasty warm.

2,200 sq upstairs - 2,200 sq downstairs (basement), but only heat about 850 sq of basement. The rest is closed off (Tool Crib, Pellet Crib, Bar and Pool Table room).

So 3,000 sq when I use the Furnace or 2,200 when using the Quad.

Just broke the 60 bag mark this weekend. But I have burned a bit of Cord Wood also.

Might be able to stay under the 2 ton mark?? ;-P When temps are 45° and above, I can get by with just Wood.

That will be a 2.5 ton reduction from last season. But last season was the Winter from H#LL ;-P

(Edit: That 60 bags is TOTAL for the year, not just January)

Heating 2k sqft @ 71/72 down & 67/68 up. Ran 41 bags thru my stove in the month of January.

Good thing pig status is what you keep on hand for fuel or You and I both would be out! Barely 60 bags thru my stove so far. 2 tons might be doable for me too! But betting we see a cold snap to mess that all up. I have never had a less than 3 ton season so we shall see!

wife, kids , 2 stoves= too hot = about 3 bags a day.

1100 sqft. 72 degrees throughout house 28 bags NO "PROPAIN" LOVE my lil' P43 I'm gonna go hug him now......

That's pretty good! I have an "L" shaped ranch, which is why I need 2 stoves.

100 bags and counting since sept 9th

Certainly better than oil! We bought 150 gallons in the beginning of Sept. and the tank level was 5/8. Now it's just over 1/4. so we have probably used about 100 gallons of oil for those few mornings, 2 days around Christmas (out of town) and for domestic hot water. At $3.77/bag for pellets and $3.40/gallon for oil we have spent just over $600 for heat and hot water since the beginning of Sept.

Where are you in Central Maine?

Lewiston/Auburn Area

900sqft garage, insulated R13 in wall and ceilings, kept at about 62 degrees via thermostat on/off mode, still havn't hit 1 ton since October '11

I have about 15 bags left, the way its going they'll last me thru February!

not sure about january per se.
but i've been burning for 97 days and have burned about 125 bags.

now that the stove is oak'd and i have my system w/ my vornado fans down to spread the heat around, i'm not overburning as much as i was when i started and it was actually a lot warmer outside.
still hoping to reel my overall total for the season back to a bag a day or less before i'm done burning for the year.

1800 sq. ft. 1 stove about 30 bags and very little electric heat.. Not bad for the Poconos.

About 115 bags so far. Been burning since mid October. No "propain" in 2 years. Love my Englander pellet stove.

175 bags since oct. 40 or so in jan. 1200 sq ft split face block no insulation in walls, r 13 in ceiling. average 70°

2700 sq ft home. Two pellet stoves. 30 bags used thus far.

47 bags


18 cubex, 13 green supremes (includes 3 broken bags @ $2 each) 13 Greene teams, 3 stove chows. could have done better but the castile devours cubex @ 9 hrs when on high.

approx 14gal of oil, hot water, furnace core temp regulation, & i flipped it on for 28 minutes over the month. yes, you guys are encouraging the "sickness" aka diy energy audits. im photographing oil gage every sunday now too...

2700 Sq. Ft leaky log home........91 bags since Oct. 20.

81 down, 83 to go.

2200 sqft running two stoves 63 bags for january

42 bags for the season so far, but I "cheat" and burn cordwood also. Can't complain as the wood is free. If I didn't burn wood I'd guess i'd be around 80 bags so far.

about 110 bags so far since the first week of September, sole source of heat for my 1934 1500sqft sidehall colonial in upstate NY with r25 in the attic and original windows! Average temp. 70 degrees. I haven't bought oil in three years! I love my 25 pdvc.
