According to a NFI Instructor on average there are 8,000 BTU’s in a lb of wood pellets.
One gallon of # 2 heating oil has 140,000 BTU’s
100 Gallons of #2 oil costs $2.60 today or / $260. for 100 gallons
1 Ton of wood pellets I bought last month cost $244./ ton
The math says there is 160,000,000 BTU’s in a ton of pellets
There is 140,000,000 BTU’s in 100 gallons of #2 heating oil
Right now you will save $16.00 and get 20,000,000 more BTU’s burning wood pellets.
So it's cheaper,
Your money circulates in the economy closer to home which benefits you,
It’s carbon neutral,
It burns cleaner,
and it smells a h#$L of a lot better
