I live in upstate NY. I am looking to buy a pelllet stove for my Tile Showroom., which is approx. 1400 sf with high ceilings and NO insulation between the walls! Cost me $900. a month last winter to heat the place and it was still FREEZING!!!
What would be a very Low maintence, easy to use pellet stove suggestion? I will be operating it myself (female) and want easy to use operation. No ornate trims just a stove to supplement the heat problem. Suggestions, please. I can get Quadra, Lopi & Avalon Stoves where I am.
 
all three you mentioned are excellent product lines. i would suggest about half again the heating capacity of your shop due to the uninsulated walls , probably a lot of open air , and hard surfaces like tile tend to need more heat to get them receptive to warming up , look for somthing in the 50Kbtu or higher range and preferrably able to heat up to 2K to 2200 sq ft. preferrable more if available.

hope this helps ya
