My brother gave me an old pellet stove taken out of the house he bought I modified it to run sawdust it works great I added a copper coil water heat exchanger to get more heat the air heat exchange is not very efficient this model could have been designed better

Great to heat off my waste it will keep the 40x60 shop in the 50s in winter, it helps that I insulated the whole building to r38.
