I paid for a product (wood pellets) at an agreed-upon price in April, and scheduled the delivery for July.

I paid in full already for the higher-quality product…can they do this?

Down Draft Wood burning, outside water heaters for heating my home?

I am thinking about getting a outside wood burning water heater to heat my home. I came across a company that has a down draft burning system heater and they say it is the best this, best that, most efficiant ………. There must be some not so good points about this type,what are the pros’s and cons? Where can I find more information on this type and other out side water heating burners (corn,wood pellets) other than the manufacturer or sales person? What is the best one to get, can a person build there own, whre can one get plans to make a efficiant one…….?

What are some good alternative residential heating options? We currently heat with a large wood stove.?

We live in the central U.S. where corn is abundant, but dont want to be stuck with a stove that ONLY burns corn or wood pellets. We have found one place that makes a stove that burns ANY biomass: corn, pellets, wood, nut hulls, etc. This is the kind of thing we are looking for but would like more options. Solar is not an option.
Our house was built (its old) without duct work and we dont have the money to put it in now. My husband has no faith in solar so that is out (personally, I would love to use it to run some our electrical stuff). Our house is about 2,700 sqft with 2 stories.

Is it safe to use Home Depot's Wood Pellets for my birds bedding?

I know a lot of people buy fire place wood pellets for bedding because it’s great AND it’s cheap. But I’m asking about Home Depots’ specifically (mind you, it isn’t Home Depot brand). I looked at the bag and it didn’t mention anything about additives, and said it was "mostly" made of pine and some other kind of wood.
BUT it also said "Not for human or animal consumption." which worries me. Is that just a standard message, or does that mean it’ll be poisonous to my little birdy?

Please don’t reply with "Don’t do it if you don’t know" or "Better safe than sorry." Obviously I’m NOT going to do it until I know, which is why I’m asking in the first place. Experience with wood pellets preferred.

Wood pellets as kitty litter?

Does anyone use wood stove pellets as kitty litter? I have read some positive stuff online. Several questions…

1. Does it work (keep odor down, stay clean, last a long time)
2. Where can you buy it??? (I can’t seem to find it at any stores!)
3. How do you maintain it (Do you scoop it? How often do you have to change the whole thing out? How do you clean out the urine?

I know it’s lots of questions… but thanks for taking the time!
I ask because… i am getting my kittens fixed next week and need to use something other than clumping clay. i read about wood pellets, and sounds like they may be a really good inexpensive alternative longer-term. i worry about my kittens’ lungs and urinary tracts with the dust!
