    Welcome! When you get that stove hooked up & running, post some burning pics....we LOVE pics!

    PS If you bought that stove used, I highly recommend taking it apart outside, and clean every inch with compressed air, brushes, and a vacuum. Might need some replacement gaskets too.

    great advise. i will definitely be taking it outside and cleaning it up. i did buy it used. i am having a problem with my town inspector tho. he wants the original install sheet that shows the clearance to combustibles before he issues me a permit to install the stove. what a pain!

    Don't bother asking for any help or advice here… we just collect pictures and drink beer. You DID buy enough beer for all of us didn't you?
