Yes, hazelnut wood can be used for burning in a stove. It produces a good amount of heat and has a pleasant aroma when burned. However, ensure that the wood is properly seasoned to minimize smoke and maximize efficiency. Always check local regulations or guidelines for burning different types of wood.
No, a wood burning stove requires wood as its fuel source, not propane. It is not safe to burn wood in a stove designed for propane only. It is important to adhere to the manufacturer's instructions and use the appropriate fuel for your stove.
Yes, but do not expect them to do well. Pellets are intended for use in a pellet stove- spacing, surface area, and air movement are wrong for a standard wood stove- and they are a bit pricey.

Put wood inside instead of coal one day and see what happens. Size does not matter. If it is a large stove use large wood, if it is a small stove then use small wood.
Spruce, pine and fir are all soft woods, and tend to have too high a sap content to burn in a wood stove. The higher sap content translates into greater creosote production in your chimney and can lead to a fire. Stick to harder woods. They burn longer with more heat produced and a cleaner chimney.
there is nothing intrinsically wrong with a stove that doesn't heat like it used to. It is in the wood that you are using. Maybe this load of wood is not as seasoned as the loads you used before. Any moisture left in unseasoned wood will reduce the heat of the fire and make the stove seem like it is not heating. Or maybe this load of wood is a different kind of wood than in the past. If you used Oak, Ash and Black Locust in the past, and are using Maple now, or Elm or Sycamore, it will not burn as hot. These woods burn faster but with less heat.
To effectively burn wet wood in a fireplace or stove, it is important to first ensure that the wood is properly seasoned and dried. This can be done by storing the wood in a dry place for at least six months to a year. Additionally, using smaller pieces of wood and building a hot fire with plenty of airflow can help to dry out the wet wood and promote more efficient burning. It is also recommended to use a mix of dry and wet wood to maintain a consistent temperature and avoid excessive smoke.
There is a product specifically for this, called stove black. It is available at many hardware stores. A wood stove that is in use at least periodically will not rust much because it is being kept dry, and stove black pretty much stops rust. Things not to use include any ordinary paint or oil. Anything that will burn or decompose when heated very hot is very much to be avoided. In fact, use of such things can be very unsafe, as they can produce toxic fumes.
The benefits of having a wood stove are many. With rising costs in energy, you can actually take matters in to your own hands. Buy yourself a cord of wood, and use your wood burning stove to keep yourself warm in the winter!
Coal or wood fired boilers or just heat water on the stove. A wood stove most likely.
Not a good idea. Most aluminum alloys will warp under the heat of a wood stove. Probable fire hazard.
To burn wet wood effectively, it is best to first dry it out by storing it in a dry, well-ventilated area for several weeks. Alternatively, you can use a wood stove or fireplace with good airflow to help dry out the wood as it burns. Avoid burning wet wood in an open fire pit or fireplace, as it can create excess smoke and be less efficient.
