<div dir="ltr">While I can't make any recommendations on specific brand or models of electric feed pellet heaters, I advise you to be careful if your client's inverter does not provide a "pure" sine wave; I have seen issues with pellet heaters, boilers, smokers, refrigerators etc that can't handle a modified square wave. There are gravity-fed pellet stoves available that need no electricity at all - look at Wiseway and US Stove. They are large and ugly, but any electric pellet heater that won't function properly on your clients inverter is worse than ugly.<br><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><span style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">Dan Fink</span><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">Professor of Solar Energy Technology, Ecotech Institute</div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">IREC Certified Instructor\u2122 for: </div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">~ PV Installation Professional</div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">~ Small Wind Installer</div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">Executive Director, Buckville Energy</div><div style="font-size:12.8000001907349px">NABCEP Registered Continuing Education Providers\u2122<br><a href="tel:970.672.4342" value="+19706724342" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)" target="_blank">970.672.4342</a></div><br> </div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
