Denise from asked:

Can you cook on a pellet stove as you can cook on a wood-burning stove?

No, a pellet stove does not get as hot as a wood stove, and therefore cooking is not much of an option.

Carrie B. from Cheshire asked:

If I have a wood fireplace insert, can it be replaced with a pellet stove insert?

Yes. Pellet inserts are designed to install in an existing fireplace opening. Once the wood insert is removed, the fireplace can accept a pellet insert, provided the opening is large enough for the model you choose. Keep the following in mind:
- Venting: The pellet insert must be vented with components approved by its manufacturer for that specific model. For an existing masonry chimney, we recommend relining it with a stainless steel flexible liner. The correct liner size depends on the insert you select.
- Power: Pellet inserts require an electrical outlet, ideally a recessed outlet behind the insert.
- Fit: An exact size match to your current insert is rare. Please send us the dimensions of the fireplace opening with the wood insert removed (front width, back width, depth, and height), and we can recommend models that fit. A new surround or trim may be needed if the sizes differ.
Browse our Pellet Stove Inserts, narrow results by opening size with our Virtual Fireplace Insert Assistant, and read more in our Pellet Fireplace Inserts Buyers Guide. We recommend having an NFI certified professional handle the installation. You can find one near you at NFI Certified Pros.
