    Introducing Brand New Wood Furnace to Market - The Drolet Tundra!

    When it happened to mine I played homeowner stupid. They never asked about my setup just wanted pics. I also brought up the ash pan problem. They just send a new one no questions. I kinda just wanted my money back due to the high annoyance and anger that was flowing through my body but I...

    Smart Stove

    I talked to the owner/inventor today. Long stoty short. He started heating his house with wood and thought of way that he could throw wood in and not have to babysit. Spend 5 years of his life developing the unit and finished in 2010. Then he tried to get any stove company to bite and get it...

    Introducing Brand New Wood Furnace to Market - The Drolet Tundra!

    I have and it sucks. I would have to wait about 30 to 40 before closing it down and constantly monitor it. The therm helped a lot. And yes I throw in as much as possible.

    Introducing Brand New Wood Furnace to Market - The Drolet Tundra!

    That just blew my mind! Are you implying we bought this solely on cost? It was a factor yes but we don't deserve to have a stove sold to us that can kill our family! In all the research I did no where did it say; this can kill you because you are a cheap ass. Don't think I would have...
