    The old one of mine has made through over 35 ton it has shown creep but no where near what the replacement did.

    Yes but that agitator keeps the ash level under control that isn't the case with the one IHP or I have.

    Really? I bought my stove in March of 2009 and I've burned between 4.5 and 5.5 tons every year. My burn pot looks like it did when it was new.

    That's even better!! Now I do see folks having to replace something on their harmans. Is it the flame guide?

    Those aren't too bad on the wallet I hope. How often do those need replacing?

    Not often, but they are termed as a consumable. They are about $25 according to my Google search.

    I don't know if it's just me but I think those pellets got wet; they look a little puffy.

    Snow coming tonight and into the coming week they say.

    Still flip flopping between stoves.

    Little Whit Gittenerdone from yesterday afternoon while I cleaned the Big Whit.

    Still 70 F in the house this morning.

    Been very quiet (No wind) and this seems to help things stay warmer inside a bunch.

    Not expecting a lot of Snow, maybe a few inches is all, but enough to snarl the commuters a bunch.

    Glad to be retired

    That chit isn't supposed to start here until I am at work (5:30 am). However, I have a dentist appointment at 8 am - just in time for the chit to hit and have everyone drive like idiots so there are plenty of crashes, which will turn my 15 minute drive to the appointment into 30-40 minute drive. And should I get there unscathed and on time (I'll leave early for sure), then any bets on if my hygienist makes it in anywhere close to time (or at all)?
