Heating for rental: Electric vs pellet stove
I am currently under contract on a property i plan on renting out long term. The property has electric baseboard heat in every room throughout the property. Yet in the dining room there is a pellet stove the previous owner used to use along with 4 huge pallets of pellets in the basement. I am unfamiliar with a pellet stove and i feel uncomfortable renting and having tenants use it since it may be a safety hazard also that seems like a fire hazard. Is it possible for me to remove it? If so, How much would that cost? Is it worth it to remove it? If anybody has had any experience with this i would like to hear about it and what is the best way to go about it. Thank you.
