So, in about a week my first pellet stove will be installed in my house. I decided on the Hampton GC60 and purchased from Dean's Stove & Spa in Plantsville, CT. I live in Northern CT in a 2,200 square foot Colonial. I built my own hearth - pic attached - and just waiting for the stove to be installed before putting the baseboard back up.
I've been reading here and just joined the site, but wondering as a n00b pellet stove owner if anyone has anyone has any suggestions right off for me. I'm obviously looking at this more for next winter since I'm at the end of the season, but what are some good pellets to start looking for, or any suggested settings, tweaks, etc. on the stove itself? From reading the site I'll need to just try several things out to see what works best, but I am curious if there is anything right off the bat I should do or a good place to start, check, try.
I admit, I'm kinda nervous about it, but crossing my fingers this investment works out.
