arnash said:I guess you've missed several of my posts in which I've mentioned that I use chainsaw chips and little pine cones, doused with a fair amount of smokeless lamp oil to light my stove. Been doing that for 3 months since I got my stove. I don't know of anything that can equal it for the price (free, except for the lamp oil) without creating lots of ash, like paper does.
tjnamtiw said:Just as with a wood stove, I would certainly NEVER use paper or anything else light weight that can be carried while still burning up into the flue. That is inviting a creosote chimney fire. I know that creosote in pellet stove flues is much less likely but I've seen several posts here with photos showing such buildup. Using paper is verboten IMHO. I used fatwood in my wood burners for many years and I guess I could use it in the pellet stoves.
