DO YOU LEAVE YOUR PELLET STOVE RUNNING WHEN YOUR AWAY

[movemaine]

Yeah, I run 24/7 all heating season...

Runs nonstop except to clean. The first week I had the jitters as well. Made sure the smoke and CO detectors were operating. After the first week, all was well. As w/ Mikesj, as I gained a better understanding of stove operation and safety features, I became comfortable in leaving it unattended.

If your not home what good is the detectors LOL

It's called sleep; the equivalent of "not home" yet physically at risk in case of fire.

24/7 took the wife 2 weeks to let me run it that long.

When I got my first stove, I was too nervous to let it run unattended over nite and/or when we were out.
I got over that quick.

One stove runs 24/7 with occasional downtime for cleanings. Second stove is backup when the temps dip
below zero. They are on two different floors.

I actually trust them more then the furnace.

I used to leave my classic bay running all the time. I don't trust my mount Vernon so I shut it off when I go out otherwise it runs all night. My stove has a lot of problems and it does crazy things so I don't trust it at all.
