    Well, with the temps expected in the -6 area Friday night, plus snow in the 7-12" range tomorrow, I figured a complete cleaning was in order.....now!

    Got everything done this afternoon, including ash traps and a lint eater treatment on the pipe.....she burning nice!

    Gonna try the TSC (Lignetics) pellets tonight and tomorrow, and then Friday dump in the Sets for the real cold.

    I like your map better than WMUR's. This one shows me in 3-6" and theirs shows me in 6-12".

    Just turned the truck around in the garage as it is easier to pull out nose first instead of backing and turning around in the snow to go down the driveway :mad:

    I was supposed to be off tomorrow and Friday, but that changed this past Tuesday. I agreed to the change-I guess last weeks fall on the ice when I hit my head really did some damage if I agreed :p

    I am going to bring more wood in tonight. Brought another ton of pellets into the camp a few days ago. We are ready for the cold. This is where the Wood Gun Gassification boiler shines! Heating a little over 4200 sq.ft. of living space. 900 sq.ft. of garage to 45°, and all our domestic hot water.(DHW)
