Introduction: Pellet stoves and inserts are a convenient way to heat with wood, but they involve difficult technologies. We’ve sold, installed and serviced hundreds of pellet stoves from different manufacturers, since their beginning in about 1987. Pellet stoves can provide great economy and warmth in homes but they need carefully planned installations. They also require regular maintenance if they are to provide reliable service.
Yes, pellet stoves do require electricity and in some cases, propane stoves are a better choice. At the same time, pellet stoves do provide significantly lower fuel costs and their environmental advantages are significant.

Being Green and Independence: Amazingly, pellet stoves and inserts are one of the greenest ways to heat your home. They are carbon (CO2) neutral and don’t contribute to global warming. Wood pellets also are a renewable and sustainable energy source. And, best of all, they provide energy independence from foreign energy sources.
Both our Federal and Oregon state governments now recognize the environmental advantages of clean burning pellet stoves and inserts and together provide up to $1800 in direct tax credits when you purchase a new pellet stove or insert! Be sure to come in for all the details.
Harman Pellet Stoves: Some wood and gas stoves can be purchased on low price alone and provide years of acceptable service. Buying a pellet stove on lowest cost however, is like choosing a brain surgeon based on lowest cost. We strongly believe that the three most important features in pellet stoves are reliability, reliability and reliability. Pellet stove reliability costs money.
So, many pellet stove brands have come and gone. A decade ago, Whitfield Pellet stoves were the industry leader in reliability. They have now been surpassed by Harman Stove Company pellet stoves.
The Harman Stove Company has the unique reputation of carefully building reliable pellet stoves. But, they’re not cheap. Neither are they perfect, nothing is. They’re just good pellet stoves. They use a reliable, patented cast iron side fuel feed system that reduces maintenance and provides improved reliability. Many Harman stoves automatically light themselves and automatically maintain the desired room temperature. Harman pellet stoves are also exceptionally quiet and efficient.
Quadra-Fire Pellet Stoves: Quadra-Fire pellet stoves have been made for 20 years and are an industry leader in reliability, low maintenance firepot that is the industry's easiest to clean.
