Hello all,
I have a Winslow PI40 pellet insert and was thinking about converting to a gas insert. Not sure if a gas insert is a good primary source of heat for my home. I live in CT and have a 1,100 square foot home remodeled this year. Every walls insulation has been replaced with new windows and what a difference. I can run the stove on a low setting to keep the whole house warm.
Although the pellet stove is performing well it would be nice to have a maintenance free stove. Went to the place where I bought the pellet stove and really liked the fireplace inserts. The salesman did make a comment that the setup was not meant to run fulltime. I think he said the remote has a thermostat on it and would shut off the stove once warm and restart when the house cooled down.
Plus the inserts looks great. Puts on a nice flame just like a real wood burn.
Going back to Saturday to ask more questions but just wondered what people thought.
