    I’ve been planning to build a house for a few years now. It’s been a process to have the land surveyed, apply for a zoning change, deal with the county etc but we’ve finally started. As we got started and began having materials delivered, it dawned on me that the first thing I bought for the house wasn’t lumber, nails, concrete or plywood. The first thing I bought was a new stove! A Woodstock Progress Hybrid. I actually bought it last Spring during the end of season sale. It was the first thing purchased and will be one of the last things to install. It’s hard to have patience!

    Nope. No problem to be seen here. Move along.

    Good luck with the new build!

    The best installs are where the home is built around the stove.

    No problem, perfect plan!

    Completely normal. But “Normal” is a setting on a laundry machine! The Progress Hybrid is a great heater, loved mine for the years I had it. No stove now but house is not well set up for one.

    Sounds exciting. Keep us posted and share pics if ya can. Couple years ago the house across the road from us was demo’d after being hit by a car. They just broke ground 2 days ago.
