My stove has been running on the thermostat since it was installed two weeks ago, except at night when I turn it down.
 
24/7 for the most part since Oct 8th. Set on low. My Glowboy doesn't do well on a thermostat. Been through 12 or so bags.
 
I run it about 5 to 8 hours everyday as needed. Its been pretty warm the past few weeks in Dutchess County NY lately. Its like 60s during the day and low 40s overnight. Aint it ironic that some of us are hoping for colder days just to bring the temperature to what it currently is now? LOL
 
Ran it day and night for about a week.
That was a couple weeks ago.
Days have been too warm so it's off
until it's cold enough to leave running
24/7.
 
Like others, I turned mine on with thermostat settings around Oct 15. It's been averaging 1/2 - 1 bag per day since. Main oil burner t-stat is turned down to 60. That only runs for hot water now.
 
Burned the last couple of nights, one night the low was 36.
 
Have burned 10 bags in October so far. Turn on stove 6am every morning, and wife keeps it on low everyday. We bought this house(our 1st) in August and when we first looked at it in July my wife said after the first viewing, "So, you know where you want to put the pellet stove?"............I love my wife.....
 
64F today in Cheeseville... cold front moving in and I just felt the NG furnace kick in... time to fire up the stove!
 
A lot! Al Gore is paying for my pellets,

Al Gore is paying for them? How do I get him to pay for mine?
