well....if your house is really thin,you get the most gain around noon,then it just leaks back into outer space(not inner space)@ about 2:10pm estdt round dec 22
And I cheat like heck! That ducting saves loads and I got lots of solar gain too. Not having to heating that basement to 80ºF to get 72ºF upstairs is near priceless!! Only heat it gets is on the return cycle.........
adjusted trim the other day and glass is still clean with blazers.....just not huge heat,i would compare them to dry creek as far as heat goes,but way cleaner.
Roasting up FSU's in one stove and Clean energy in the other , burned off my $ 1.99 AWFWP's so they are next in line
Bought the first one 10 years ago and still running great. Replaced the convection fan and the igniter year before last. No issues. Bought the second 8 years ago and is lightly used, in the loft above the garage. Run that one on a wifi thermostat, which was a great move as we used that space much more now that we can control the heat from work. Have no idea how they are making the Quads now, but I think I got a couple of good ones.
These Nature's Own I am burning slide down the hopper really nice. I forgot to load the stove last night, and it's set to hi/lo. It went a full 24hrs without running out of fuel. I have had issues going half that long
Steady diet of Nature's Own for now. Some cold ish weather due to roll in. Hamers on standby. When those are gone, I can restack the NO's and the sets can be reached if need be. Hope I can save those for next season!!
