Have gas and wood in mine. Someone pointed out that pellet stoves don’t work without electricity…hadn’t occurred to me.

We can’t do wood anymore, since the upstairs pellet stove is a fireplace insert. The downstairs ones in the critter-kids area is a stand alone.

Yes, if the electric goes out, it’s a little problem, but not as much as a problem if we were to try to heat this place on gas. We have a gas furnace, but at this time of the year, we would spend 350 a month if we ran it. Pellets run about 2.50 a day/night.
