Bit of a newbie here..
I can never tell when this needs water to start with. I understand theres a indicator flag however its goes up and down all the time.
My main question though is, are these not suppose to be able to handle frigid temperatures? ex: -10 to -25 degrees? Have a hell of a time keeping running during the night hours. Tend to wake up and it is COLD in the house. 1 of 2 things happen. 1 its running fine but its not "keeping" up. Temp in the house just won't rise but everything outside is working the way it should. At least thats how it looks to me. The only thing I've come to is it needs water. However, at 6am -15, i don't see me adding water to it.
OR, its basically out. Theres wood IN it but the fire is either out or non existing.
Is this normal?
Normally, once we go out and mess with it, add paper and such to get it lit up again if that is the issue. Within 12hours were back to having heat in the house.
Any help or knowledge would be greatly appreciated! Thanks everyone in advance!
