Swaidner Hearth & Home is a division of Swaidner Refrigeration, Inc., which has been

family owned and operating in the greater Fort Wayne area since 1953.

Swaidner Hearth & Home was started in 2006 with the intention of fueling this areas need the heat with today's environmentally friendly, renewable resources. With all of the new technology in today's Hearth products, heating with biomass based products has never been safer, easier and with less maintenance than ever before. With the ability to heat with corn or compressed wood pellets will not only lower your dependence on today's fossil fuels, which in turn helps our environment, it will also lower your heating bills through the entire winter. With early-buy pellet purchasing programs, in the Spring you can lock in your fuel prices for next winter. Swaidner Hearth & Home has a goal not only to have a good variety of biomass burning stoves, furnaces and boilers, but also having all of the accessories, chimney products and renewable fuels available in one package to complete the job.

If you are tired of spending to much on your heating bills,

contact us for more information on how we can help.

**********************************************************************

Not only do we have furnaces, boilers and stoves available we also carry all of the CHIMNEY/VENTING and PREMIUM PELLET FUELS to complete the job. We also have experienced personnel available for professional INSTALLATION and SERVICE of these units.

If you are tired of spending to much on your heating bills,  contact us for more information on how we can help.  You can use a pellet/corn burner as your main source of heat or to offset the ever growing LP/Natural Gas prices.

"...Used as primary heat source, a average home will burn 2.5 to 3 tons

of  wood pellets per heating season..."   quoted from "Pellet Fuels Institute"

You can still have the great look of the nature wood burning flame but without the hassle..

Going Green is a term used to refer to the process of re-evaluating how we use energy with the intention of reducing the impact on our environment. It means different things to different people.

To us it means using natural, renewable resources as heat energy sources. This produces fewer harmful emissions, lessens our dependence on imported and diminishing fossil fuels, and creates more self-sufficiency – not to mention bolstering American pride.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A little about Biomass and it’s “Green” aspects:

Biomass energy is essentially the sun’s energy captured and stored in growing materials. This energy can be released “directly” through combustion, one of the most efficient and direct methods of harnessing biomass energy. This results in very efficient energy transfer in the form of heat for our homes, garages, barns, shops, offices - virtually anywhere we need heat.

Other “indirect” uses of this energy actually require additional energy to convert biomass fuels into other forms (e.g. refining into liquid fuel) making them far less efficient uses of biomass’ natural energy.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Using direct Biomass heat could significantly reduce the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions versus burning fossil fuels.

How? Burning biomass fuels releases some CO2. However, that CO2 is "balanced" by the amount of CO2 that was captured during its growth process just a short time before. Burning fossil fuels releases "new" CO2 that had previously been stored deep in the earth having no significant environmental impact.

Since it takes only about 180 days to reproduce corn and this process consumes carbon dioxide, a balance is created between the amount of CO2 removed from the air and the amount replaced through the burning process.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As a renewable, natural energy source, biomass is a more sustainable and less intrusive solution than heating with fossil fuels.

We believe in the power of biomass to have a positive impact on our environment and lifestyle here in America. Will you join us in support of our environment for future generations?
