Who is excited to escape to the lake for some much needed rest and relaxation? For many, the cabin means reconnecting with family and nature. While we stay busy during the day, the evenings often mean quiet time around the table playing board games, eating snacks, and telling stories. Spring and summer evenings can be very cold in some areas, and many people report needing some heat all season long. A pellet stove or fireplace is an excellent source of heat when it’s needed, and many MagnuM appliance owners report LOVING their stoves in the vacation homes and cabins.
What do MagnuM stove owners love most? They tell us that they love the easy installation, easy intermittent use, and the plethora of options that were available when they chose the right heating appliance for their needs and space.
Stove and Fireplace Options
If you’re looking to heat your cabin with wood pellets or corn, many options are available depending on your needs and the size of the space. If your cabin is a cozy cottage, you could likely heat the entire space with a pellet fireplace. Pellet stoves like the Magnum Countyside and Baby Countryside can heat larger areas and big open spaces. Pellet stoves come in a variety of sizes with different heating capacities. They can also be used as supplemental heat with existing heating systems.
Easy to Turn On and Off, as needed
Pellet stoves are simple to load with fuel and and simple to light when you arrive at your cabin. Pellet stoves are simple to turn off too, before you leave. They are safe to leave running while you’re outside for the day or go to buy bait. Fuel storage containers are one of the more convenient pellet stove accessories for vacation home owners, as you can make bulk purchases and store extra wood pellets or corn.
Easy Installation
When it comes to heating systems, there’s perhaps no simpler option than pellet stoves and fireplaces. Pellet stove installation requires very little disruption to the infrastructure of your cabin (or any home, for that matter). You simply need to mount or fit the stove to a built-in compartment and install a ventilation system. American Energy Systems carries high quality pellet stove pipe that can be installed to vent exhaust through an exterior wall, without the need for a chimney. Whether you’re building new or installing one in an existing dwelling, it couldn’t be easier to heat with a pellet stove.
