Does anyone have a newer oil heater- the ones that are more like a pellet stove?

I have a heat pump now and would like to get something that keeps the house warmer and of course more affordable.Does anyone have a newer oil heater- the ones that are more like a pellet stove?
I saw you mentioned pellett stove. This is why I decided to post. We purchased a corn burner last year and were very happy with the results.


If you can circulate air with your heat pump without it needing to generate its own heat, I reccommend looking into the corn burner. You have to load it daily or more on very cold days (20 degrees and below) or it will empty. In other settings you can fill it daily and not worry about the hopper emptying. They are easy to maintain.


We purchase corn monthly, -about $50 from a local feed mill, finding it is the most efficient.


They are very attractive and you can still snuggle by the fire with it.
