Thanks fishingpol, that would be helpful but I hate to put you to the trouble. I have sent WS pictures and I must admit I am still a little...
Does your mantel have a board running underneath the shelf like mine?
I definitely don't meet the 30" mantel clearance. Does this only apply to any portion of the mantle that hangs directly over the stove? The mantel...
Matt How long have you had this stove - is it a new install? Also what type of chimney setup do you have, is it lined and how tall?
I'm still trying to figure out if there is a way to leave all the wood trim intact and still meet clearance requirements. I hate to gut the...
Good inputs from everybody, thanks I'm leaning towards the keystone because 1. It has an ashpan 2. its a second stove so I don't need much...
Yup, I'd also like to hear from Todd on his take on the two stoves. I think he sold his FV. The KS is slightly smaller but has the benefit of...
Woody - why did you sell the fireview? How does it compare with the keystone?
Sounds like you just had a really good draft going while firing up the stove. My VC resolute used to make the pipes glow even when the bypass was...

Yes I have the Progress but need more BTU's. The house is 2400 sq ft with tons of glass. Rooms furthest from the stove get down to the mid 50's on...
Woodstock's literature says to use a 7" liner for the Keystone/Palladian but my understanding is they still allow a 6" liner. Anybody running...
Agreed, I think that's the key to a longer lasting gasket.
I keep reading stories of the same Progress owners replacing their door gasket multiple times to get rid of their smoke smell. They replace it, it...
F Dennis, for you there would be a milk crate waiting! :drool:
I've always said "Woodstock Rocks"!
That is a tuff decision. So you till have the Progress and the choice is to add the Ideal Steel or a Fireview/Keystone? Keep in mind the Keystone...
I am in a couple camps - too many coals during the deep cold, but way too much dust in the house from shoveling ash. I know Dennis has this magic...
