    Yeah you work with what you have. Im amazed at how well I can heat my 2600 sq ft house with a 2 cf firebox. When -23 the center of my house is still 22c and the stove is on the bottom floor, amazing! I will say though that my previous stove was a 3 cf smoke dragon in my last house and in this one its 2 cf. If and when I replace this stove it will be with a PE Summit or a Blaze King with a 3 cf fire box. Im happy with what I have for now though.

    A balmy 19*F. The boiler will be hungry for more wood in a couple of hours. I will toss in some black locust, because it is close.

    Feels like -15.

    Next week will be colder as the temps will be that low. Then add the wind chill. Crap.

    I don't think I'm any further ahead with google translate. All I can say is they're 87 % efficient. The rest I can't make heads or tails of. 1,300 kg seem a bit heavy for a stove?:eek:
