Gunner its more like 10000-15000 untill it eats up most the smoke before it settles down. And that takes a few hours. But thats all I need @ -5c or warmer. Otherwise my windows are open. On the old stove I could not do low clean burns without a small load but then would have to re-fuel sooner. I wouldent be home so on goes the furnace with 15 cord in the back yard. Also Id find myself on the roof once a month cleaning a chiminey that looked like it was going thrugh puberty. All I mostly burn is pine /spruce/poplar and if Im lucky white birch. On a med burn she will still get a good honest 20000 to 25000 btu 8 to 10 hr burn.Gunner said:Ya, the 6400btu/hr you get on a low 20hr burn must be blasting you out of the broom closet. :roll:

I got a good deal at the store as it was last years and was used as a demo,very few fires. it should be enough heat for our house. I stayed away from the cat stove for simplicity and I hope I made the right decision, not to mention a large savings on the purchase price.
My next question ..any ideas on getting that old 600 pounder up 10 stairs out of my basement?
I am seriously considering paying the guy at the stove store to come pull it out. It would be worth the money I think.
Getting the Regency down there on a large fridge dolly using gravity to assist should not be a problem, But the length and shape of the PaPa B. will be an issue.
Thanks

Good luck with your new stove. I'm sure you'll love it. The whole cat vs non-cat thing is over blown. Don't worry about.
As to moving the 600 lb beast - try planks, 1-1/2" steel pipe, cut to size as rollers, and some rope. Works great. But if you aren't sure about what you're doing, call the stove guys. Don't hurt yourself.
