NEW BRITAIN, CT (8/30/11) – WoodPellets.com is proud to announce the winner of the Win Free Green Heat Contest: the Meyerhoffer family of New Britain will receive a Jamestown Pellet Stove and a year’s supply of wood pellets.
Anne Marie Meyerhoffer, a church pastor and single mom of two, entered the online contest after receiving an email entry form. She has relied on pellet heat in the past to keep her family warm. In fact, she became a self-described cheerleader for wood pellets when her gas boiler failed. As she scrambled to find a service technician who could fix the boiler, she used her pellet stove as the sole source of heat in her poorly insulated home, built in 1925. “My pellet stove kept my family warm for the 20-plus days we had no gas heat.”
The contest was sponsored by Jamestown Pellet Stoves and WoodPellets.com. Glen Satori, proud owner of Preferred Pellet Services in Middlebury, Connecticut, is enthused to carry out the task of delivery and installation for the contest winner. Satori has been in the hearth industry for 7 years and was thrilled to be a part of the contest. Concurrent with the stove installation, WoodPellets.com will deliver three tons of CleanFire Hardwood premium pellets, one of the company’s highest quality, top-selling brands.
Gretchen Saegh, Marketing Director at WoodPellets.com, says the company plans to conduct similar giveaway contests in the future. “This is very exciting stuff: we’re able to partner with some of the finest stove manufacturers in the industry, help to educate consumers about the benefits of wood pellet heat, and then actually give free heat for a whole year to a lucky family.”
Jamestown CEO Bill Boulton says his company is elated to have co-sponsored the contest. “We’ve produced a high efficiency brand of pellet stoves for more than 30 years, and as fossil fuel energy costs continue to fluctuate, we’re very happy to offer consumers the option to heat with a cost-stable, cost-effective, environmentally-friendly fuel.”
For anyone who would like to enter future contests, Saegh advises to keep an eye on WoodPellets.com/StoveFinder. “Any giveaway contest we do will be posted here, along with a comparison shopping tool for people interested in learning more about wood and pellet stoves.”
