greetings all,
been lurking and reading as much as I had time for here and getting to the point where I think I should make a purchase.
First, any other NH's have a recomendation for a good dealer to purchase from in central NH-north of Concord area ?I suspect "best deal" is out of the question as the call I have made seem to indicate a strong demand,little in stock left and a buy it now while you still can get one senario.
second a brand reccomendation.
I have a expanded cape,wood stove in walk out basement that will not heat whole house,two fireplaces that are really not positioned well for a insert.I do have a good spot (will be direct vent outside)near bottom of stairs leading to 2nd floor that will heat first floor living room,kitchen,dining room and hopefully carry a decent amount to the bedrooms above.Total space,not counting basment is a bit over 2500 sq.Use 8-1000 gal of fule oil along with 3 cords in the wood stove.Hope to cut the fuel oil at least in half maybe more.
Read lots of bad things on here about the Quatra fire ,lots of good about the Harmans (wife likes the look of the XXV-but doubt we could find one).Any thoughts on the St Croix Hastings?
Open to the suggestions,also sources for wood pellets (softwood? hard wood?)
thanks in advance
