    Question:

    What is the difference between using inside combustion air and outside combustion air for my new pellet stove? Will my new stove be less efficent? What are the advantages of using outside combustion air?



    Answer:

    Outside air will increase the total efficiency of this product. Pellet Stoves use a lot of air for combustion, and taking this air from your home results in cold air being sucked into your house (from windows, doors, etc)
