Pellet Stove Service

With Chimcare’s pellet stove service, our certified technicians inspect and clean your stove in the best way possible.

Our pellet stove maintenance service will help you keep your household appliance functioning successfully. Pellet stoves are small, efficient stoves that burn compressed wood or biomass pellets to heat up an area, similar to a wood stove or traditional fireplace. The pellets come in easy-to-store bags, which are then loaded into the hopper to burn. The fuel is transferred to a heating chamber via an automatic system, where surrounding air is sucked into the stove through the fan and moved through the heating chamber before being distributed back out into the room as heated air.

Pellet stoves run on electricity, emit fewer pollutants, and produce considerably less ash than firewood, and are considered more environmentally friendly than other alternatives.

Regular home cleaning of a pellet stove includes:

• • Emptying out the pot that collects the ash in order to improve air intake
  • Cleaning the carbon deposits in the stove and in the exchanger tube
  • Cleaning the glass window of the burner
  • Occasionally emptying the hopper and auger tube to make sure they are free from dust blockage

Although fairly simple to clean, pellet stoves need annual maintenance to function properly since they rely on electricity and usually run constantly during colder seasons. Pellet stoves have a sensitive electronic system that requires professional technical maintenance and care. For this reason, you should rely on a professional pellet stove cleaning service and repair company for the job. Schedule an inspection of your pellet stove for safety and maintenance every year before cold weather hits.

If it has been a while since your last chimney cleaning and inspection, your system may have suffered damage. Chimcare not only offers inspection and cleaning services for wood-burning stoves, but also has experience helping people get the most out of their pellet stoves as well. Chimcare has technicians that are National Fireplace Institute (NFI) certified or Chimney Safety Institute of America (CSIA) certified and can service most gas, wood, and pellet stoves.
