Advantages of a pellet stove compared to conventional fireplace stoves
Easy handling and smart home control
Austroflamm pellet stoves impress with their particularly easy handling and innovative control technology. But how does a pellet stove work? The pellets are automatically transported from the storage container into the combustion chamber and can be ignited at the push of a button, via time or temperature programming or conveniently via an app. The automatic control of air and pellet supply ensures optimal combustion and efficient fuel use. Another advantage of pellets is that they only require half as much storage space as firewood because they are made of pressed wood and therefore offer a higher calorific value per kilogram. With Austroflamm's smart control options, you can experience maximum heating comfort and adapt your heat source to your lifestyle with complete flexibility.
Environmentally friendly heating
Our pellet stoves are powered by locally available wood pellets that come from renewable resources. Heating with pellets is also CO₂-neutral because only as much CO₂ is released during combustion as the trees absorbed during their growth. Thanks to the precise control technology of our stoves, heat is only generated when it is needed, which leads to particularly economical fuel consumption and a significant reduction in emissions. Compared to wood stoves, the combustion can be flexibly reduced, and, unlike boilers, no basic heat is generated - heat is only provided on demand. This means that emissions and fuel consumption only occur when needed. In addition, the high-quality pellets leave hardly any ash, so that you benefit from a clean, efficient and visually appealing heat source.
Quiet operation
Austroflamm pellet burning stoves are characterized by their quiet operation, which further increases living comfort. The modern technology ensures that the combustion is almost silent. This means that you can enjoy the pleasant warmth without annoying noises that could impair your well-being.
Hydronic pellet stove
Austroflamm deliberately uses non-water-bearing pellet stoves because our devices are specially designed as efficient single-room fireplaces and offer flexible additional heating. Pellet stoves with hot water heating often require expensive additional installations such as pump groups, piping and possibly buffer storage, which increases the purchase costs considerably. In addition, it is not possible to operate such systems without electricity in an emergency. However, with the practical air distribution module from Austroflamm, you can also heat adjoining rooms easily and inexpensively without having to forego the advantages of self-sufficient, electricity-independent operation. This solution enables effective heat distribution while remaining low-maintenance and low-emission - ideal for anyone looking for uncomplicated and reliable additional heating.
Frequently asked questions about pellet stoves
Are pellet stoves worth it?
Absolutely! Heating with pellets is a sensible and sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, which impresses with its efficiency and low CO₂ emissions. A pellet stove can be easily integrated into existing heating systems and is particularly helpful for absorbing the expensive peak load of modern heat pumps. Heat pumps often work less efficiently at low temperatures, which drives up electricity consumption and thus heating costs. This is where the pellet stove comes into play: It provides cozy warmth without consuming a lot of electricity and can be used flexibly as needed. Pellet stoves also score points for their use of regional fuels and their high level of user convenience.
Can you operate a pellet stove without a chimney?
No, a pellet stove always requires a chimney or an exhaust pipe to safely discharge the resulting exhaust gases to the outside - in accordance with the applicable regulations. If there is no chimney, however, it is possible to install an external wall discharge.
How much does it cost, to run a pellet stove?
The costs for a pellet stove vary depending on the model and the local conditions. We recommend purchasing your pellet stove from a specialist dealer, as you will receive tailored advice there that is optimally tailored to your needs. With pellet stoves, professional installation also plays a crucial role, as incorrect settings can not only affect the function, but also increase pellet consumption and thus operating costs.
How do I clean a pellet stove?
Cleaning a pellet stove is easy: regularly remove the ash from the combustion chamber and clean the glass surface to keep a clear view of the flames. Depending on the level of use, the grate or tilting grate should also be cleaned about once a month. For long-term functionality and efficiency, we recommend annual maintenance by a specialist. To ensure that your Austroflamm pellet stove always works optimally and is ready for the next winter, it is worth taking out a maintenance contract. Our service team will then
