No doubt!! I think I would only need to fill that thing twice a year
I was seeing temps like that as well from time to time. Just put a couple less logs and and stack them a little tighter. Having less air gap...
Yes it is a new construction home though. R21 walls and whatever attic (39? I think) that wisconsin requires.
Low of 8 last night, sitting at 11 right now. Had a later reload than normal last night around 10:15, normally do it around 7:30, so it was still...
Sitting at 10 now, was 0 at 4 am when I let the pup out to do his business. House still at 71 when I just reloaded. Man the stove takes off nice...
Ive noticed with my set up mainly burning red oak I will get a nice rolling flame and charred wood going close it down to 1/4 and turn the pipe...
You'd really need to think about the cost to recoup. Sounds like a heck of an investment to get a decent set up. Little ones learn fast, just...
Definitly dont burn a can. Go to your local hearth, farm and home, Menards, etc that sells wood burning appliances. Look for some Creosote...
I had a quadrafire 3100 that did the same thing. I relegated it to the fact that the incoming air cooled that side of the stove so it was always...
I have mostly red and white oak in my stacks. 4 year rotation and will still come across a sizzler or 2 weekly. But man does it heat nicely and...
Someones on to something... On a side note that saw will not disappoint! I also came up from a 450 rancher. The 20" narrow kerf wasn't to bad on...
35 out with some wind and drizzle. Supposedly a chance of a couple inches of snow today. We'll see.... Got down to 69 inside this morning as I let...
New manufacturer? How do you tell when its time to replace? Mine is only a season and a half old in my Ideal Steel, but seems to light weired...
I've had the same experience with cat probes. The heat they have to endure is just too hot for how they are built. I've gone through 2 on my Ideal...
8 here house still at 72 from last nights fire. Gonna let it sit idle as we have family coming over and the sun has plenty of power this time of...
Been awhile since I've checked in. Nothing abnormal about the weather to share until today. Woke up to 4-5 inches of snow and a high predicted at...
I have some silver maple. I've got it set aside for shoulder seasons. Planned on mixing it in with oak and elm to tame the heat for this time of...
I would still leave the cat in. Just build some smaller hotter fires that burn out when you need a little heat. It may take a few but it should...
Ditto! Never goes out I just turn the air and flue to almost closed and can crack them wide open 24 hours later to start a new fire. Maybe just a...
I'm just glad to see a Dodge guy actually towing something with his tow mirrors flipped up!:cool::thumbs: Nice score too! That will provide...
