Pellets Used So Far

[kbjelka]

17 bags so far here in North Western Connecticut. Still burning oil in my second zone due to my single floor layout. Waiting for a back-orderd programmable thermostat from my dealer which I'm sure will slow pellet my consumption. Thermostat has been sitting at 70 since the install.

Only 10 bags so far here....pretty much just burning right now to take the chill off during the night time ;-)

11 so far. I would have thought you northerners would have used more.

I feel like a PIG :long:

Well.....It was 64 today and we may get a thunderstorm on Saturday.
I hope I don't have to get the lawn mower out again!!

38 bags, was a learning curve for me. Testing a few different brands of pellets and varied settings. Yes, we ran the house too warm. Glad it wasn't from oil!. Heating two levels with a total of 2160 sg ft.

I just poured my 7th bag into the stove. Only burn it at night to keep us warm...stove comes on sometime between 5 and 7ish pm and goes off by 7 in the morning.

Had to mow last weekend...and will have to get it out one or two more times to chop up leaves. Mid 70's the last few days and 2 more to go then it drops down for a much colder weekend highs low 50's lows in the 30's

3 bags so far been warm here going down around 28 degree tonight so might start on 4th bag tomorrow.

I wish I was a pellet pig.

15 so far in Southern NH. It has gotten fairly cold at times. I have to say that I'm enjoying knowing how many bags I have left at the end of each week. No more wondering how much propane they'll be dropping off.

Stove set to run medium after start up.

 

[teamorange]

Ha, only used 3 bags so far. Run it from 4pm-9pm nightly, thats about it right now... House stays at about 61 without any heat right now. I know thats all going to change...

 

[TboneMan]

17 bags. Started burning on Oct. 4th. Averaging 0.6 bags/day.

 

[DOBS]

14 bags. Averaging a little less than a bag a day running 24/7. Set it around 73' from 5pm-10pm, 68' the rest of the time- room temp mode, manual ignition.

O so far for us cause we are still waiting for our stove that we ordered in August; so I'm using oil and not happy about that at all, but have 2 ton sitting in the basement

 

[MCPO]

Maybe only 6-7 bags so far and mainly cause it`s a new thing.
The sobering fact is that using my 85% efficient oil furnace presently at -$3 a gal which is approx equal to my $300 per ton pellets. The central oil heat is far more quicker , even (comfortable) heat to *all* areas of the house , for the same cost and is so much quieter than the pellet space heater is. And it`s absolutley no bother at all.
I`ll put up with the pellets when it gets colder. I got 4 tons to burn and it will be nice supplemental heat come the winter.

1/2 a bag so far. Still running on the heat pump, but not even that has been running with temps in the 60's lately. If things don't turn around soon, I'm going to take the savings from not running the stove and pay to have some snow shipped in.
