  • No, pellet stoves are not high maintenance. In fact, they are one of the most low-maintenance types of stoves available. All you have to do is add a bag of pellets to the hopper every few days and empty the ash tray once a week. You may also need to sweep up some ashes from time to time, but that's really about it!

    It depends on the stove. Some pellet stoves are very high maintenance, while others are not. It's important to choose a stove that is low-maintenance so that you don't have to spend a lot of time cleaning it.Pellet stoves work by burning wood pellets. The pellets are stored in a hopper, and the stove burns the pellets to create heat. The ashes from the pellets fall into a ash pan, and the smoke from the stove goes through a chimney.Some things you'll need to do with a pellet stove include: checking the hopper to make sure there are enough pellets for your burn; making sure the damper is open.
