Now, spending under $400 to heat a 2,600 sf house is a bargain in my book. Between diesel, chainsaw maintenance, chainsaw consumables, and gas for the splitter it might come close to that amount anyway. Not to mention time. If I work three hours instead of cutting wood for 3 days, that would pay for the pellets. Then again, hard manual work is good for the soul, not to mention spending time with my dad and brothers. I'll re-evaluate the situation when we are actually going to buy stoves for a new house, but now I won't rule out a pellet stove.
