Have you pulled the plug?

Thunderstoms that seems to be a daily event. Hope everyone has pulled the plug on their stove, and is not depending upon the surge protector. I don't want to buy a new circuit board!

yes

Great reminder, especially for the noobs and absent-minded members like Krooser and Don.

Yep..... On ALL of them

I trust the surge protectors, only when I have to.... Not when I dont need to.

qft.

My surge protector protects only in heating season. My unplugged (OAK & vent capped, desiccant filled) stove would not be affected. But I wish we could have a thunderstorm. Our brown crunchy grass and withering trees & bushes would sure enjoy some wet. Forecast has nothing but triple digit temps w/ no rain for the next 10 days. Looks like last summer's Texas drought has taken over most of the country's mid-section.

yep. stove unplugged. even though the surge protector has 3300 joule capacity.

wow. now that i think of it, i should move that one in here to my pc and tv. they are one of the smaller tripplite spike cubes.

had a hit the other day. all was well. but still...

Unplugged and clean. 90°, camping, and no rain in sight.

Great idea.

Unplugged.....I am already looking forward to heating season, the cozy pellet stove going and momma's food cooking in the kitchen on a cool, brisk autumn day.

Watch what you wish for.....have you forgotten the "winter from He** " 2 years ago????

I remember it.... !! I used more pellets that year, than any year. . .

Although I love my stoves. After a few yrs of operation. I do kinda want Winter to wait. Its taken awhile to get here. But I enjoy Summer too...

I love my new Chainsaws and my new Zero turn. Got rid of the old 52" Cub Cadet zero turn and got a 74" deck, 33 HP, Dixie Chopper.... Love it.... Love cuttin grass again

This is the time to shop around, get what you want and on terms better for you. Also to keep check on oil prices. I will be getting another100 gallons. ( still have half of the 100 gallons I bought last year). After the elections are over, the pressure to keep prices down are gone and the push for the green agenda will resurface with new strength. If you arn't a pellet pig yet. Now is the time to join.

Yep- stoves always unplugged during the off season.
IMO just asking for trouble leaving them plugged in with all the summer thunder storms.
The control boards aint cheap.

Stove is unplugged, venting cleaned & plugged (http://www.hearth.com/talk/threads/plugging-up-selkirk-dt-during-off-season.72769/page-2), stove cleaned, damprid in hopper & ash pan, and 4 tons of pellets in basement & garage since April. Ready for next season.

Now to the rest of you reading this thread, if you haven't already pulled the plug on your stove, do it, or you just might be asking a question on here in the fall that goes something like this:

Why won't my stove light? I don't have any lights on my control panel and the stove is plugged in.

Stove is unplugged. 2 ton Spruce Point in basement, 4 ton MWP in garage.

have a good surge protector as recommended here, yet the stove is unplugged.
4.5 PWI and 3 McFeeters tons outside, under tarps.
