Hi guys, good to be back. I have had my Jotul F500 Oslo for 3 winters, and I made a great discovery this week. In the past, when I would shut...
My hearth is ceramic tile, which I obviously want to keep from scratching. Also, did you have the two jacks in front of the stove, then move it...

7 degrees here in SE Ohio with 5.5" of snow...supposed to be 5 below zero tonight, colder with wind chill. Burning a mix of black locust, oak, and...
Check out my post this morning titled Love My Clayton in the firewood forum. I answer several of the questions that have come up in this thread....
I would offer a different perspective.....on their wood furnaces. I have had their Clayton 1600 wood furnace for 13 years and love it. It does a...
Wow. Great job planning and preparing.
