Beautiful stove and good idea to be safe with the stove pipe. You are going to quickly become a wood junkie! :) The PH has the ability to rear...
The Fv just gives such nice even heat and in my house it does really well with distribution too. Might not be so quick to get to high heat as the...
Yes, just a tad under 1 in below freezing weather, and after I've got a good blaze going in the box. Sometimes I'll drop down gradually, but I'm...
I load up around 11:00PM at night and after 5~10 mins I throttle down to .75 on my draft. Sometimes I think that's too much, but I've learned to...
I usually put a thermometer on the stove pipe about a foot up from the stove, and then a 2nd temp gauge right on the top of the stove. When you...

Those things are just sitting there saying "hit me"! :bug:

Woody, I run both stoves on the same stack, but it's a 26 foot stack from the upper Fv and another 10 feet or so to the downstairs AS. Everyone...
What I love most of about the Fv, is looking at the wood and just seeing it all black, no flame and maybe a little bit of red glow on the edges of...
My neighbors Hearthstone stove has tubes that were begging for replacement. No protection from wood being loaded in and age deterioration.. caused...
On burn tube stoves the burn tubes are frequently damaged easily while loading wood, or just deteriorate from wear and need to be replaced. See...
My experience with this stove is to really get the heat high, and I will usually help that out with a cracked door on initial cold start, for the...
I have owned my AS since the were released, and did a field test AS the prior year, so I have been burning with the product version of the AS now...
Incredible.. sometimes someone gets a break! Kansas is a long way away from home for a Woodstock Stove. How's your wood supply? That stove is a...
I have a Fireview and and a Absolute in my home today. The Fv is going on year 6 this coming year. I clean it with the vinegar spray half way...
