Reply #9: Pellets run $230-299 a ton or $4-6 per 40 pound bag (you don't have to buy a ton at a time) [View All]

Pellet stoves are much more efficient than wood stoves and can run for a day (or more) without filling the hopper.

My fuel oil consumption dropped to zero with the pellet stove - and I used $160 of pellets in March (as opposed to $600 for fuel oil in February).

The savings are huge and more importantly, I didn't have to live at 50-55 degrees F (which gets old fast).
