    I just want something where if I am gone all day is still pumping heat when I get home or to help on the coldest of days so the reloads aren't as critical.

    Right now my wife is gone for three days to a teacher conference in Columbus and I have been working 12 lately. That's a long time for a wood stove to go when it's zero or slightly above outside. I would love to be able to load the stove leave for 12 hours and know the pellet stove would be putting out one heat when I get home. On days where we are having normal temps I can go 12 hours and not worry about it but not in this recent stuff.

    No prob Swags. Glad she is working good.

    I have long said it. I love my wood stove. But Pellets will always be my Primary heat. Total automation. My house is always warm and cozy.

    Its been running two full days now and I just pulled out the clinker, probably should have done that yesterday but the clinker really wasnt too big. So i think im alright, the mix in running is about 30-35% pellets in with the corn. Burns well so Im happy. but like Dex said I still love my wood stove.
