I started at the beginning of October ,and have it running for the first time today . I spent the first week on the phone trying to find an installer ,and trying to get
specs from the city . I never did find an installer so I ended up installing it my self . I have done it to code and will call the inspector as soon as I get my garage cleaned up . It took me three weeks to get my chimney from PipeVent.com,and when it did come there was no pipe . I got that locally for another $120.00 .I wish I would have gone there in the first place .You will notice that the stove is sitting 18" above the floor on concrete ,it is a building code requirement ,the black metal thing on the right is a guard that goes over the glass to protect it from flying objects when I am working . Such as car parts ,or air nails . I may make the hole a little larger . I had it running for a couple of hours and it seems to work good .

Yea I couldn't think of any thing else at the time and now I just find it easy to remember . I just keep adding L's until it is accepted as a user name .You are only the second person to figure that out .

Surefire Pellets are sisters to the Okies we talk about hear. Like to hear what you think of them. Once you tried the others too!
