By steadily feeding fuel from a storage container (hopper) into a burn pot area, it produces a constant flame that requires little to no physical adjustments.
When a hot ember ignites the nests, the fire can be just as serious as one caused by ignition of soot. In very old houses, the chimney may also be very large and thick enough to withstand the fire. The high temperatures may affect the strength of the chimney causing distortion of metal structures, and potential failure of ceramic structures.
Pellet burner systems run most efficiently at full load and can usually be regulated down to up to 30% of its full capacity. Since the warmup phase of pellet ovens usually takes longer than for oil or gas firing systems, short burning phases have negative effects on the fuel efficiency. In order to improve energy efficiency and reduce harmful ...
