Wood Stoves & Pellet Stoves
wood stoves
Wood stoves are freestanding hearth appliances designed to burn cord wood.
Pellet stoves are either freestanding or they can be inserted into an existing masonry fireplace. Pellet stoves share many of the characteristics of wood stoves and combine the advantages of wood-burning with the convenience of gas.
Why Choose a Wood Stove?
There’s no heat like wood heat. Forced air furnaces only heat the air, so the minute the furnace goes off, the air temperatures drop. A wood stove produces both convection and radiant heat that warms the objects around it: walls, floors, hearth, furniture, and of course, you, for a much cozier home.
Wood stoves are a great source of efficient, cost-effective heat for the whole home or select spaces
Cordwood is a naturally occurring renewable resource, not a fossil fuel

wood stove Materials
Selecting the right stove for your space and heating requirements is important and our expert showroom team can help! Wood stoves are usually constructed from steel, cast iron, or soapstone. Choosing one material over another does not provide more heat, it only affects how quickly the stove heats up, the rate of heat distribution in the living space, and the rate of heat loss once burning is complete. All models have ceramic glass, which radiates heat, and optional outside air adapters.
Steel stoves heat up quickly, distribute heat quickly, and lose heat quickly when burning is complete.
Soapstone stoves are the slowest to heat up and distribute heat, but they also retain heat and radiate it out into the living space long after burning is complete.
Cast iron stoves fall in between steel and soapstone stoves: they build heat, distribute heat, and lose heat at a steady rate.
wood stove Styles
Wood stoves are available in many styles. Choose from Scandinavian-style cylindrical stoves, chunky vintage-look stoves, sleek minimalist stoves, and more. Steel stoves have either legs or pedestals. Cast iron and soapstone models are generally available on legs, and there are various color and finish options on some models.
Many stoves can be customized with a variety of finishes, different door styles, and even legs and pedestals!
The right Size wood stove
Depending on your heating needs (small-space to whole house and everything in between), it’s important to choose the right size of wood stove.
The best way to quantify the size of a wood stove is by the size of the firebox. Modern stoves are much more efficient than those of the 1980’s and because of this, they require less fuel and have a smaller firebox.
Firebox volumes range from about 1.4 cubic feet to 3.2 cubic feet which can accommodate logs from about 16” to to 24” inches.
To optimize efficiency at high altitudes, most of the stoves we sell feature an optional outside air adapter. We strongly recommend this option on all new wood stove installations.

pellet stoves & Inserts
Why Choose a pellet Stove or insert?
Pellet stoves are a great source of efficient, cost-effective heat for the whole home or select spaces
Economical to operate: within 5% of the cost of natural gas
Pellets are a naturally occurring renewable resource, not a fossil fuel. Pellets are made from compressed sawdust as a by-product of the lumber industry. In Colorado, pellets are most commonly manufactured from beetle-kill trees.
Zone Heating concept: heat where you live; pellet stoves are an excellent choice for heating isolated rooms or areas, such as basements and workshops, or providing supplemental heat for large spaces.
Thermostatic controls; some models have an easy-to-use touch screen
Turn an inefficient fireplace into a powerful heater
Highly efficient/large, long-lasting heat output ranging from 35,000-52,000 BTU/hour
EPA-Certified: okay to operate on “No-Burn Days”
Pellet stoves can be operated with a constant heat output or can be thermostatically controlled
Pellet stoves use a hardwired electrical hookup to control their voltage for exceptionally efficient burning
Like direct vent gas appliances, pellet stoves can terminate horizontally through a wall (no chimney needed), giving you plenty of options for locating the stove exactly where you want it.
We are proud to announce that all of our pellet stoves are eligible for the $2,000 IRS Biomass Tax Credit, which greatly offsets the purchase, installation, and venting costs!
pellet stove Materials
Pellet stoves feature a steel body which heats up quickly and distributes heat efficiently. The ceramic glass also radiates heat into the space; and blowers ensure maximum heat output while the stove is burning.
pellet stove Styles
Pellet stoves or inserts can be customized with various design options.
Pellet stove inserts are pellet stoves with the legs or pedestal removed, designed to be installed into the firebox of a typical masonry wood-burning fireplace. However, they can also be framed into a wall in new construction or remodeling. They are excellent choices for heating large, isolated areas such as basements and workshops.
The right Size pellet stove
Depending on your heating needs (small-space to whole house and everything in between), it’s important to choose the right size of pellet stove or insert.
The best way to quantify the size of a pellet stove is by hopper capacity, which can range from 40 to 120 pounds. Depending on the size of your pellet stove, the size of the space you are heating, how much you use your pellet stove, and the heat setting, a 40-pound bag of pellets could last anywhere from 24 to 48 hours.
