Pretty dang cool. I never really considered what happened to the moisture in the wood, and never would have guessed it'd be visible steam out the...
Thanks! But I usually can't see anything up there, even after lighting a fresh fire in a cold stove. I CAN however easily see the cats, and I...
Thanks for all this, Old Hippie! In my setup, I don't have access to the flue, so monitoring temps there isn't possible. With STT, the soapstone...
Those are some mighty fine chainsaw pics, folks!
My stove manual says: You can get an indication of whether the catalysts are working by comparing the amount of smoke leaving the chimney when...
Thanks for sharing! My setup is nearly identical, right down to the stuffed insulation where the damper used to be. All in all, I'm very happy...
Not in a mobile home, but I have a pellet stove and wood stove and occasionally fire both at the same time. Pellet stove is in basement. Yes,...

Thanks for this! My problem is not about how to get to a temperature, but what temperature is my limit. I've practically memorized the manual....
Thanks, Steve! And I realized after looking closely at your pics that the thermometer is WS, not some aftermarket unit that could have whatever...
I've spoken to Hearthstone and they weren't worried about 600*, though they didn't give me a number nor is there one listed in the manual. In the...
Oldhippie, as a young hippie, I'm still learning how best to operate my stove. You'll recall I converted my wood burning fireplace, which is how...
We have two. I got them mostly for the cool factor, but believed they probably moved some air and that they were probably built stout and would...
:faint:
I'd have no problem running one of these dirty generators if I was on a job site powering a few tools. But for my house, when I see the lights...
Happy to report an INTAKE damper, at least on a Hearthstone Heritage, works! I now have full control over the burn, and don't have to worry about...
