If there's a bright side to the cold weather, it's that it hardens you up in a hurry!
The chart near the bottom of the page gives insight into stack height and temperature differences driving your draft. The Hearth in the House as...
Can't tell you about the stove, but welcome aboard!
:rootintootin: After 12 or 13 days I think, the weather has finally broke. Warmed up to -7 C (19 F) this evening. I lost the cold weather turbo...
There's poplar and willow all around me locally. Spruce and pine are probably 10-11 miles away, but even then you need a spot to cut from. Birch...
It's -28 C and feels like -36 C with the wind at the moment. Supposed to be -15 C by this evening, and -10 C by midnight. Crossing my fingers that...
It's possible it might need a touch more air, or you never know if a log shifted late in the burn and somewhat blocked the air by the window....
We should be laughing by tomorrow if the weather network is close to being right, -15 C by the afternoon. Currently -32 C

Looking at -33 C (-27 F) and dead calm out there for once. Took out my ash bucket wearing long johns and a house coat and it didn't feel so bad...
[ATTACH] Chilly tonight guys. Poplar and oil furnace tag team happening. I used the computer clock, as the weather guessworks quit time stamping...
I don't partake anymore, but I used to run on a lot of vodka, and that sure chased the cold away.:drunk::drunk::rofl: :lol:
I think I'm in yooperdave's camp when it comes to silly cold. I don't mind "cold cold" say -20 or -25 C for extended periods, but below that...
Tires always do that.:eek::D
:shiver: Looking at -30 C (-20 F) without wind, -40/-40 with the windchill. Can't hardly wait for tonight...
