The risk is pretty big. If a tank heater starts leaking after 13 years of not leaking then I would replace the whole thing. They really aren’t...
The blaze king and my last stove, hearthstone heritage, did have fully sealed intakes so no leaks. 100% of combustion air comes from the oak...
One more thought.... connect directly to the appliance or don’t do it at all. I do not support just dumping air into the room or near the...
Humidity. All that outside air getting sucked in will lower the humidity too. It usually has very little to do with stove performance and more to...
Thank you. I hope for more than 9 years on mine!
Even wrapped the handle. I suppose that is to prevent charring the wood? So did you need to pay for the new bk? Fellow low and slow softwood...

We might be neighbors. I’m up near Buckley. I knew the welder that built country stoves when they were a local company. His name should be on the...
People have had water leak into the exterior vertical seam on class a double wall. The fix was a finger of clear silicone run up the seam on the...
I raked up a huge pile of bark chunks before the rains came. It’s on a gravel road with plastic over it so I know it’s going to be getting wet....
It sure is fun to burn this scrap junk that fell off during processing the 2019/2020 fuel.
I’ve never actually used one but people seem to love those Polaris connectors for joining larger wires. There are a few options for splices at the...
Blown in anything is better than batts. Modern blown fiberglass isn’t itchy anymore, they fixed that. I blew 178 bales of cellulose into my shop...
You can certainly nut solid to stranded. It happens at every light fixture. I wouldn’t use split bolts but the proper wire nut. I installed a...
Nope, never. Never had the flue either. If it ain’t broke...
