Hey on this Isle Royale, how much wood do you burn in a day at 24-7? Bart has let us know "about a wheel barrel" a day is a reasonable avg and good starting point. 20 or so avg splits per day. I'd be curious what you see on this one? thx

If really calling for heat - your in the neighborhood, I would guess.
 
I fill up the firebox three times per day when it's normal winter temperatures for Wisconsin.
Split size varies so much between users. With my splits, five usually fills it up enough to get
to the next cycle. I use a ten gallon metal trash can to bring a load in from the garage. Packed
loosely, that's enough to make a load in the stove.
