    Sitting at -25 c feels -30 c or -13 f feels -22 f. Funny thing is, after the cold we've been having it doesn't seem so bad.

    top exhaust, STT thermometer (one came with stove) 3 inches to the left of the flue pipe. I talked to Tom, owner at Woodstock, at an open house when I went down there to chat with the legend Backwoods Savage and his beautiful first wife ;). I used to do what you are doing. Tom said 'get stove out of third gear' in short keep STT under 700. running air from quarter to half. depending on wind. As soon Coaling starts and STT drop below 525 full air til 450.. Rake ash and reload.. At nite I am a little over quarter so I know it' safe when go to bed.

    I have skied Jay peak with outside air temperature was 49 below and wind chill was "ridiculous". The coldest I have ever been was a hostil, north of ayers rock, it probably was 15 degrees but impossible to get warm. Not prepared as winter clothes down there is a jumper (we would call it a hoddie)

    It was rough this morning for sure. 9 degrees out. Almost made me wish I wore a jacket when I left for work.

    Current temp -4°F headed down to -18F with moderate winds giving us a wind chill of down to -40°F overnight. Currently got the pellet stove running as well as a load of ash, hard maple, and birch getting the house temps up before bedtime. :shiver:

    :fire:

    This will tighten things up good for ice fishing and sledding.
