Just curious who has started burning wood. My wife started our wood furnace yesterday. We usually try to wait till first or second week of November.
It's been on and off during the nights. Yesterday temps here were 71 and today it's 55 , when the house hits 65 or lower I usually start a fire to get the chill out
I usually wait til November too unless we get a rare cold snap in October, its actually been pretty mild so not yet this year.
X2, my wifes limit is 67 though. I'm not complaining. I like to putz with the woodstove and the toys that are needed to aquire the wood! Like many here have said before its my therapy.
Started September 26. Our *line* is when it's no longer warm enough in the day time to benefit from solar gain to get the house up to about 68 or so. This year was about 12 days later than last year.
I've been burning uglies for 5 weeks now oil furnace will not be turned on til Temps go below 10 degrees so December?
We have been burning off and on for a month. Since my wife has had cancer she likes to stay warm. So when she wants a fire I lite it and I shed cloths. 70 She is freezing, chemo is what is doing it.
The fall shoulder season started for us a few weeks back.....we usually start the stove up by the second week of October. Usually,start a fire at 8:00 on the nights it's to be cool, and load it up before bedtime. A re-light in the AM when I head to work and she just let's it go out for the day ..... We've used only the Napoleon NZ3000 so far this season, haven't had to fire the 1900p as of yet......
I started burning about the 6th of Oct. Not cuz I needed to but cuz I wanted to. More of a stress reliever thing than a heat thing. Now in a month? Things will be a little different. The fun of a nice far might just turn into an all out fight against the elements. Time will tell.
Been getting a fire going in the mornings for the past few weeks. We let it die overnight cause the better half likes it cool in the house for sleeping.
Just lit one a few moments ago. I think it's the fourth one I've lit. First would have been about two weeks ago. Starting out slow this year.
The sole purpose of my Jotul 602 is to heat our sunroom. So we've been burning off and on for about a month now.
I've been lighting a fire in the boiler every 3 days or so for the last couple of weeks. Once the wood boiler comes on and the hot water heater goes off we are committed.
We've had only a few fires in September, quite a few more in October, now that November's knocking on the door, it'll be more and more. Prayers from here too guys!
