Another ?? fella's.

I was wondering if anyone knew how much larger the Oslo's firebox is compared to
the hearthstone shelburne's . 2.0 cubic ft. --
There is no spec on the oslo's firebox anywhere. Like I said a few day's ago. I have
found a good price on a Hearhstone shelburne. Just I am torn by the Oslo I seen at
another stove shop. I only have 1500 sq. ft. is all. average insulation. Middle of Michigan.
It seems logical that the Shelburne would do fine. But I just dont know. I found a new
enameled Oslo for 2500. I thought that was a good price. But for 500 bones less I could
have a Shelburne. Which is 400lbs. The Oslo is 445lbs. Single level house also. My Masonary
chimney is 15 to 16ft. My liner may have to go up higher.

Thanks again

Thanks for the input . I checked a few places and I can't seem to find anymore Jotul Dealers around me.
Will have to yellow page them. There has to be more here in Michigan. The one is 25 miles away, the other one was
south a couple hours. And they were not very happy to answer any questions, so there out. I have been checking
Craig's list for a couple month's. But people are trying to sell 10 year old vermont casting's for 2,000 dollars. I really
like that Oslo. I just don't want the price too shoot up on them agian while I am waiting for them to go down.
Two grand for a Shelburne in any finish I want. That seems alright for the Hearthstone. Two places I checked
today were $50 apart. I know both stoves are pretty nice, no doubt about it. My fireplace is warm for 15 ft. in
front of it in 20 degree weather. But the rest of the space is in a Ice Age...........

Yes, I have 3 full cords of oak I cut last winter. Should be ready in the fall.
I am cutting now on the weekends trying to get a year or so ahead.
I have been burning elm and popular in my fireplace. Can't bring myself to
burn any of the oak. ( It was alot of work getting those oaks out of there
with a wheelbarow. }

Thanks again.
