Hudson River Niagara Freestanding Pellet Stove
With its footprint of approximately 3.3 square feet, the Hudson River Niagara Freestanding Pellet Stove is clearly designed for small rooms. Measuring only 22″ W x 22.25″ D x 32.5″ H, it can be classified as a compact stove. In spite of this, however, its heat output is in no way diminished. Indeed, it is capable of generating 35,000 BTUs at maximum setting that can quickly heat a small and even medium-sized room. At low setting, this is reduced to 8,000 BTUs.
The design of the Niagara is modern and stylish. There are no frilly trims and embellishments, only straight vertical, horizontal, and diagonal lines. A large bay window provides a clear view of the flickering flames inside. An optional log set and firebrick can be installed to give the stove the look of a traditional log-burning fireplace.
Big magnetic doors provide a quick access to the interior of the stove and to the large ash pan. Although it can carry plenty of ash, the pan can be easily slid out from the stove for emptying. Inside is a quiet motor that drives the auger as it pushes wood pellets into the stainless steel burn pot. Ignition is automatic with the electronic igniter. Once the fire is up and running, a powerful yet silent fan transfers the heat from the stove into the room.
Its hopper capacity of 55 pounds enables the Hudson River Niagara Freestanding Pellet Stove to burn for as long as 50 hours without refilling if adjusted to a low setting. With a fuel efficiency rating of 85%, the stove does not only save on pellet costs but also minimizes your carbon footprint. Further, at this rate, it also qualifies you for tax credits.
