Inquiring minds want to know....:):whistle::drunk::yes::cheers::pete:
That's an interesting solution there, going through the gasket instead of the Woodstock cat port. The Condar digital probe might also work in that...
I take it that the probe had to be cut to length as to adapt to the cat sled raising and lowering? If so, does the probe still work after being...
That guys sounds like a prime candidate for Eco Bricks cause he ain't gonna get a winter's worth of truly seasoned wood at this point. That...
This is an easy one. Closed cell spray foam should run $1.00 +- per "board foot"....that is 12 inches by 12 inches by 1 inch deep. You have the...
This report is coming to you live from the stove room where my Ideal sits..... The stove was fed a full firebox of 3-year old cut/split/stacked...
Well, in my experience, 80-90 degrees is unpleasant when the exterior temp is 55, but when it's below zero, 80-90 degree indoor temps are a...

I agree with this. On my prior 2010 EPA tube stove, I partially blocked off a permanent draft opening with a magnet and the stove went from being...
As the weather progressively gets colder, the Ideal is showing its strengths. It does not have the wild temperature swings of my 2010 EPA tube...
Interesting. I got out the IR gun and it read 50 degrees less than the thermometer. Right now the stove is 1.5 hours into a reload of 2-year old...
The magnetic thermometer supplied by Woodstock reads up to 900 degrees with 680 being the top end of "Best Catalytic Burn Range"....690 is...
There are quite a few conversations going on within this thread, ranging from chimney performance to cat probes. Corona is preventing me from...
Ironic, I was talking to my wife about how the long burn times on this thing were becoming a problem.....16 hour burns are common, and at 12...
Yup....in comparison to the Ideal Steel, my 2010 EPA tube stove was a smoke dragon. The Ideal is miserly with wood and puts out steady, even heat,...
