Pellet Stove

With fuel costs on the rise, my wife and I have decided that we needed to look at an alternate way to heat our house. Currently we heat by #2 fuel oil which is currently $4.78 a gallon. We decided to get a pellet stove. It's 85% efficient, pellets cost $239 a ton, and it will take about 4 tons to heat our house for the winter. That's only $956 for a heating season. It is a Harman model XXV (25). The installers just left and here are the pictures.

Note that the exhaust vent is angled
the reason for this is that it must be
