One Ton Down The Hopper

i'll see your ton and raise you 3/4

And my stash still looks like this on one side of the basement. Okies and Lacretes on the other side.

Just over...gonna clean and LBT tomorrow.

Its gonna feel like August at your place.

61 is almost through the stove, 62 is partially in the hopper. I did the LBT at 25 bags, the old vacuum out the two side traps and combustion blower at 50, next LBT at 75 bags.

I changed my t-stat batteries today and entered some setbacks and increased my swing one unit. It is getting close to going to #3 heat range time (15outside temperatures or below).

1.5 tons but the missus likes it warm.

Around 90, almost 2 pallets.

Getting close, bag 47 just went in.

I'm a slacker. Bag 16 went in for me. But I burn pellets during the day and cordwood at night. Still hasn't gotten cold here yet except for a few days here and there.

42nd bag went in this evening.

crap. I have no idea. I bought a ton of Maine Softies, but I also had some Green Supreme's left over from last year (maybe 8?). I also bought 20 bags of LG's, 10 bags of Black Hills, 10 bags of Okies, 5 bags of Northeast's and 5 bags of Crabbe's. And then I gave my father a bunch of pellets as well - maybe 25 bags and I still have some as well. So I must be right at a ton.

Isn't this your first season with the Sante Fe? What are your thoughts about it so far?

I have used 40 bags so far.Dont want to look stupid but I am new to this site.What is LBT? I installed a Enviro Max in my basement over the summer and on low its keeping the house at 67-68.Love it.What would be the normial amount of ash be.I have cleaned it out 3 times already and the pot was full all 3 times.About 14 bags a clean out is that normial?Thanks

LBT = LeafBlower Trick... to clean the exhaust/vent

Thanks SwineFue for the education.I seen a video on doing this.Does the liner come clean or should you still brush it?

You'll still need to do the brushing/etc first.

You guys warmed up from the last few weeks ! Saw -30's up there. Never been out in that kind of cold. I snowmobile up on the canadian border, and have missed it before by a day or so. I dont want to ride in it, but would like to experiance it for a day or two

Bag 40 is in the hopper. Close to that heartbreaking sight of an empty pallet.
