Re: Guy at a lighthouse in Maine using a pelletstove for heat could possibly use some advice

[firefighterjake]

I saw this article in the local newspaper . . . and read the blog . . . sounds like the guy could possibly use some advice if anyone has any easy answers to his problem with the pelletstove he has been trying to use to stay warm this Fall and Winter.

I invited Bill to join here and post the information about his stove and the problems he was having.

Jake, thanks for the link. I just sat and read his entire journal. Fascinating stuff. I can't help him with his stove but I just sent a $25 donation.

heck, someone fly me up there and I'll spend a month working on the stove and enjoying PEACE AND QUITE and on helluva view! That sure doesn't look like a hardship in my eyes! Lucky bastard!

I survived 8 years in Chicago at -25, I guess I could survive on a rock as long as you bring along some of that homebrew!
And I could set up my ham radio gear and get great reception without the neighbors bitching.

Thanks Smokey . . . I'll be curious to see if he stops by here and/or gets some help . . . reading the blog is pretty interesting.

You could but it's kind of hard to follow the action, though.

Looks like Bill Kitchen up in Maine got a new pellet stove to replace the one that wasn't working for him. The folks at Evergreen Home & Hearth donated a Harman (and some expertise).

Evergreen is an awesome dealer to work with. I have never had any trouble with them and they have been quick to help when i have had an issue.
