I am interested in the Trend Line P163T Pellet stove. Does any one have any opinions on this line of stoves. Do they put out a lot of heat, reliable and will they heat the 2000 sq ft they claim?

Thanks
 
I can’t comment on the brand, but I may be able to shed some light on its performance. It looks like the stove is rated for 10.1kw. That converts to 34,400btu. Is that a lot? Maybe, the answer could be different for every person asked. Will it heat a 2000sq ft home? Maybe. it depends on the temperature outside, the temperature you want to keep inside, insulation and air sealing, ceiling height, and floor plan. A 2000 sq ft house in Florida needs much less heat than a 2000 sq ft house in Wisconsin.

Pellet and wood stoves are space heaters. The room they are in is heated the best, as you go further away from the stove, around corners, down halls, etc, it’s harder for the heat to reach and you’ll get cooler temperatures.

We recently installed a P158T and we love it. Best of all is the night mode which is completely silent. It gives out a lot of heat. We were thinking of the larger model but glad we did not. The 158 heats the room which is 1,200 with a high ceiling. We rarely have the stove on high. Our only problem is that the stove is set for sea level and we live at 7,000'. Does anyone know how to adjust the stove for our elevation? Thanks
