2500$ to just upsize the interior black pipe? Then leave the 6” chimney?
Red armor for me. Bought at home depot among other places. Also, 87 octane pump gas previously treated with stabil and well aged in the rotation.
Are you putting on the 6" pipe? I would love to have that huge 4.3 cubic foot firebox to just load to the top with 40 hours of fuel. Note that the...
Not really. They have four medium (sub 3cf) stoves. the princess and then the 30 box stove that is a little smaller and less efficient but you can...
I also wanted to put a king on a 6” pipe and BK was clear that it might work if I like the stench of creosote in my house. I guess the 6” doesn’t...
His heritage “will do it” but it’s obviously not adequate or easy. The biggest 6” bk is the 2.9 cf princess which is what I use in my 1700sf home...
The “unheated” upstairs space will definitely be heated to some extent by the lower level stove. Door shut or not.
I think it’s a mistake to call a 3000 sf house a 2000 sf house unless maybe you have a 1000 sf basement below the stove that you can logically...
The king is big, huge even, but is very controllable so the physical size represents a large fuel tank more than a stove that will make too much...
Salesmen are often incentivized to move certain stoves or certain brands of stoves. I’ve heard them called spiffs. So even at the expense of the...
Not many of us have experience with the cat version of the heritage. I know hearthstone didn’t want to add the catalyst and put it in a poor place...
72 by morning sounds about right for that stove. To be clear, is this the modern version with a catalyst? If not, he sold you an obsolete model...
I ran a heritage for several years and about 30 cords of fuel. It was the last noncat version from the late 2000s and contrary to the marketing...
Yeah, by then the rest are getting pretty silly. Wouldn't want it to cut crooked so I would have to snip off a tooth facing the opposite direction.
With a light touch from the grinder and if you can avoid rocks and metal, I find chains last many years when cutting 5 cords per year. Maybe...
About a foot. Wanted it up a bit so the sooteater could scoot around it.
Depends. I just added a minisplit heat pump that heats my whole 1700sf house from 1963. It’s a 24k btu model and it needed a 25 amp breaker, 240...
The vinegar solution recommended is actually a weak acid that burns off the plating of stuff that accumulates on the catalyst and covers up the...
Me too. I actually own one for each stove and they are very quick and satisfying to use. They also can be very good for preheating the flue if...
But then really, so much great stuff comes from China too. My awesome champion generators, iPhones I’m typing on now, etc.
