Right now, I'm back to thinking a 30NC is going in where the Defiant currently is sitting based on heating capacity/purchasing costs/on going maintenance/puck-up/installation.
I paid $400 for this Defiant and I just don't think I'm going to luck into finding another 3+ cu ft cat stove in like-new condition for less than I can get the 30NC. Timed right, I can get the 30NC delivered to my door for $600 or less.
I only have 16'. It is getting the job done, but I think I could benefit from another 3 feet.
My Defiant was a tad bit more than $400 with installation. I won't recoup my investment for 2.5 years on this thing, and that is with free wood!
I'm telling ya, I am so glad I didn't do pellets (this time). I don't see anyone giving them away for free.
