Yesterday I pulled the catalytic converter out of the AS for a 50/50 white vinegar/distilled water. I use an electric 2-gallon pump for the job,...
Nice stove and hearth. Is that one of your break-in fires? Nice install!
In my AS I find as cezar above, that the smaller splits give more airflow paths and get that stove up to heat faster than biggies. However, once...
Soon as it starts getting cold here in New England, I'll be out on my motorcycle getting those last rides in.. and here and there will be a home...
I remember that well! [MEDIA]
Hey all, 16'F on the wake up this AM, up to 36 now and they are talking a little warmer each day to Xmas. I was thinking of all of you a short...
This confuses me? Did I say $657 someplace? What does FJB stand for? Or maybe you're talking to someone else? Now I'm confused?

I think this is a stove-to-stove question. The Fireview I have has a fairly large protective plate on the bottom of the top Soapstone, and above...
I think the one thing that may be missing from any comparison is some kind of standard measurement of wood consumption. Given that all the other...
Yep, a good secondary stove and/or a good cat stove can both do the same thing. Good wood and good results.

Last night was pretty cold here on the NH/Mass border, so we had the Fireview going. The Fireview being a cat stove, here is a good example of...
