Stoves, Wood, Gas and Pellet Stoves

A free standing stove, in its simplest form, is steel, cast iron, or soapstone container constructed to hold fire and radiate heat. In a time past, that was just about all, they were. They have come a very long way, especially in the last 30 years! Now you can fuel them with either Wood, Natural Gas, LPG (Liquid Propane Gas), or Pellets. You can still get them made of Steel, Cast Iron or Soapstone but they are made with such care and precision that they are now a beautiful piece of furniture in your home. They don't have to be that ugly black box stuck over there in the corner! Now they can be painted one of a wide selection of colors, they can be coated with a high gloss porcelain enamel, you can get it with a black door, a nickel door and you can go with a pedestal or black or brass legs.

The old stoves were also not very efficient and they contributed to the air quality problems that so many areas have. Some of the old stoves could put out a lot of heat but they also used up a lot of fuel to do it. Where the old stoves mostly operated a 30 to 40 percent efficient, the new stoves are now up to 82 percent! This means you are using much less fuel and creating much less pollution to be able to heat your home.

A Free Standing stove also has the benefit of being able to go almost anywhere in your home so you can zone heat and save fuel that way also. If you have a room that your large stove just won't heat, you can add a small stove to just warm up that room instead of running the whole house heater.

So as you can see, there are a lot of choices to make but at Sierra Hearth & Home we have the knowledge and the experience to help you through those decisions. Please come to our showroom and see our wide selection of wood, gas and pellet stoves and talk to our friendly staff about your needs!

Pellet Stoves

Pellet stoves are an eco-friendly heating option that have become extremely popular in recent years. Pellet stoves are incredibly efficient heat sources that can effectively warm large rooms or even your entire house. Wood pellet fuel is recycled and renewable and can be stored easily unlike firewood which will leave a mess behind. Load the pellets into your stove's hopper and enjoy up to 36 hours of continuous operation without once needing to tend to the fire. A steady, warm heat will radiate throughout your space and keep you cozy on the coldest winter days.
