Hello all, Looking to see if anyone has upgraded from an Englander NC 30 to a Princess. We currently heat our 1600 sq ft ranch with no issues. However the longer burn time and better temp control during shoulder seasons is very appealing. Wondering what the wood consumption rate is between the two stoves as well. Interested to hear any input you folks have! Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I own and operate both at the same time. Very different machines but both very good at what they are designed to do. I would absolutely not want to trade applications. The princess is a much better house stove for me. I’m pretty much convinced that cat stoves are the way to go for heating normal sized and smaller homes. 24 hour burn times right now with Doug fir and snow falling at my 1700 sf 1963 built rambler. Keeping the home in the 70s. Can’t do that with a noncat.
Welcome aboard Mike13 . I've got the 30, but would prefer a BK for the better control and longer burns.
