Probably fell asleep shortly after this pic...

What kind of heater have you got there, Alu?

 

[UpOnTheHill]

Getting ready to light up the stove today in this pic. I took apart the indoor pipe and brushed it out in the shop and brushed out the double wall from the roof. Wire brushed the secondary burn tubes, repainted the top of the stove. I even removed one of the stones on the hearth that was loose, mixed up some mortar and reset it. All with the help of my 9 year old daughter while mom and brother were doing the shopping. We've had drizzle and flurries all day here, now just straight snowing and 29 degrees. Toasty warm in here though!

I like Danes! How big is he?

We got him at 8 weeks and about 10 pounds. At 7 months he is 85 pounds. His father and grandfather are both black dogs and are over 160 pounds so he's about 1/2 way there. These dogs take 2 full years to grow from what our breeder told us.

Our boys (6 and 4 years old) named him Henry. He loves a warm fire and he really likes firewood when I bring it home. Here's a picture of him at 5 months inspecting a load of eucalyptus: http://www.arboristsite.com/community/threads/another-scrounge-score.261844/

Thanks guys. That's our family room. It's single story with a half-cathedral ceiling. In the peak, I have a opening through the end wall with an in-wall fan that feeds into the hallway upstairs. It pulls the heat out of the peak and blows it through to the hall and 3 bedrooms. Works ok. I'll get a picture of my Olix air-flo in the shop a little later. Cheers

I love burning coal, but it kind of takes the fun out of CHECKIN on the fire. The temps stay wicked hot with out fiddling the boiler.Luke

That's what I started out with 5 years ago. Those things just beg for a baffle mod, but just having a key damper in the stove pipe helps a lot too. Definitely will put out some heat!

 

[stihlfanboy]

Yeah it has a damper in the pipe. But this is my frist year running it. Cant get more then a 4 hour burn out of it. 1200sf house built in 1923. My ex father inlaw ran it and you could see your breath inside last year.

I think you could do better with a stand alone stove if you only have 1200 sq ft. Or just update that thing. 4 hr burn time just wouldn't cut it!

 

[stihlfanboy]

Well if I ever fimd the time to get sum fuel oil ill run that to. They only used about 50 gallons with the burner going. Do want to upgrade sometime. The newer version of that burner at tsc dose 1200-1800sf where this one is only made for 1000sf or less it says. Even with to bedrooms closed it got really cold inside last year.

Wholly crap! With a fire going like that, you should be able to heat 1200 sq ft to 80 degrees!

My main living room stove Pacific Energy Spectrum



And my second stove in the back room behind kitchen Pacific Energy True North

 

[hupte]

Wow, how much can you put in that at a time? I realize size is relative to the length and width of the splits too, so probably hard to say

the burn chamber is 3.5 feet in diameter and 6 feet deep. door is 20in x 22in.
