I'm not sure why you folks would jump to my wood being bad when I identified and fixed a serious issue with the draft which would undoubtedly lead...
I'm generally not burning anything above 15%, and never above 20%. Oak and ash primarily. I think what happened is that because the gasket was...
A continuation of my thread about getting my hybrid Clydesdale. Did my first inspection today. It was due according to the manual, and I've been...
Yeah I know, but it still makes sense to me not to let it run away if it is as simple as pulling a control rod out for a bit. I mean, at some...
My stove is new and I think a little overactive and it likes to go into the "TOO HOT" zone a little easily. But that said, it is possible to run a...
A couple factors in this: - We had a cold snap for a week last month that went down to 26 - I have a fancy new stove and wanted to use it - I...
Okay checked my meter and it turns on in 'wood' mode automatically.
I mean, it's kinda all good because as long as I get <15% the wood is great. The meter is consistent, It's just weird how my experience seems to...
Oak seems to be the biggest culprit for "behaving wet" below 20% on the meter. I'll check.
First, my tool usage methodology: cut a split in half and measure on the fresh face parallel to the grain pushing the pins of my meter as far as I...
I can definitely tell where a split is in a range, but I can't tell the difference between 20% and 25%. Not good enough for an EPA stove...
I have at least two cords of wood that wildly differs in moisture level and species. Some is 10-15% and some is 25% or more. I've been splitting...
Making progress in learning how to run it. I've had it running since the day we got it and my central heating has not kicked on once. We slept...
Also what is the best thing to use to clean off the soot on my masonry? The previous owners of this house had the wrong size liner installed in...
[IMG] It's absolutely beautiful. The build quality is a lot better than I expected. I'm still learning how to run it, I've done 3-4 fires so far...
Got my Clydesdale installed today and running through a break in. Ditching the other stove shop was a great move.
Minor update. I made several attempts to reach out to these folks. They answer the phone every time but the responsible person is always 'out to...
What's weird is I have contacted a couple other places (outside my area) and they have them _physically in stock_ and can ship for a few hundred...
I ordered a Hearthstone Clydesdale back in may. The installer just says "dunno" when I call to inquire about it. Anyone have an inside scoop on...
