    My stove wont be off at night but it was off today and will be off most of tomorrow. tomorrow should hit 75. This is the kind of weather where at night its too hot on 1 and too chilly with it off.
    I might dig out a few bags of my green supremes. that should lower the heat on 1 alright.

    Ahhhhh, not so much

    Shut the little Whit off for cleaning, plus the house was not real warm this morning, so I fired up the big whit and it will likely run for a few days.

    38 F outside right now and expected to get colder as the night rolls on

    Turning it off during the day for 6 to 8 hours, but back on low during the night. Also leave it on if raining. My arthritis likes the stove heat.

    Dear Husband finally got a quad with a plow after needing/wanting one for decades. We had a mild winter that year :rofl: :lol:

    Was off today but just turned on low for the night. Wife is overseas so I have to stay warm somehow and the fact I am relying on pellets is deeply disturbing to me.

    i usually dont every shut the stove down and mothball it for any long period of time. any night can be a little chilly even during august. Most of the time when that happens, i'll put it on 1 for an hour or two and then shut it again.

    P43 is on a thermostat and the P61 is on its probe. They decide when to be on or off.

    Well the stove is off:confused: just not when I wanted it to. At 3:15 am the stove ran out of pellets and started it's beeping. Which means I had to get up and silence it. I intended to to run out this morning after I got up, not during nighty night time. I intend on cleaning it today, LBT and vacuuming and blowing out the auger tube. I don't want that intermittent buzzing noise to come back. It was 59* at 6am this morning anyway, with a predicted high of 57*:whistle:
