Fuel Choices: GasGas: The No-Fuss Fuel.It's hard to beat gas for sheer convenience. City dwellers without easy access to cordwood, those living in condominiums or a home with little storage space, and busy people who don't have time to fuss with the maintenance of a woodstove, all appreciate the ease of using gas. Gas stoves are certified to one of two standards: "decorative appliance" or "furnace rated." (This rating is clearly labeled on the stove.) Decorative appliances are attractive but they are not designed to heat a room, nor are they efficient. Furnace rated gas-fired stoves, are serious heating units, subject to stringent efficiency standards. At The Woodburners, our goal is to provide you with both aesthetics and efficiency! Aside from its convenience, gas is also a reliable choice for areas where power outages are common. Gas stoves are equipped with a pilot light (a constant, tiny flame used to ignite the main burner) and require no household current for operation and so remain a working heat source during a power failure. If the pilot light ever goes out, a safety switch automatically shuts off the gas supply. For ultimate convenience, most gas stoves can be thermostatically controlled, so the heat is completely adjustable. You set the temperature with controls on the unit or with a wall thermostat. The heat is as steady and consistent as a furnace. Most units feature optional fans to help distribute the warmed air. You can accessorize your stove with a remote control, allowing you to operate your stove from your easy chair. Most of our gas stoves are Direct Vent, sealed units, drawing outside air through a co-axial vent pipe. Thus, they can be installed almost anywhere, including a bedroom or basement. Drawbacks. You have no control of the cost of the fuel which is subject to seasonal pricing. Storage usually involves above ground tanks, though larger tanks can be buried. |
