Hi,
I have been lurking around here for quite some time now. After reading thousands of posts, I feel like pellet stoves have along way to go to become a viable alternative to fossil fuel for the average Joe. I'd like to get your view on what issues the stove makers should be concentrating on first in order to make pellet stoves better. I'm specifically leaving out cost and supply issues because they should work themselves out once there is a critical mass of pellet users.
If you could wave a magic wand and make your pellet stove better, what would you fix? Please include the stove brand and model. Here is what I would fix on my Accentra Insert:
1) Make it quieter
2) Eliminate burn pot scraping
3) Eliminate ash clumping
4) Make it not care whose pellets I feed it
