It's here! My stove arrived this morning at 0845 and I'm so happy and warm. The two installers poured a bag of pellets into the hopper and set it to automatic temp around 76. He then turned the fan to high to burn off the new scent of the stove.

My wonderful heat is felt throughout my rancher. The thermostat in the livingroom hallway is reading 81 degrees. I turned the house thermostat down to 55 degrees.

I'm going to let the pellets burn completely out because the township inspector will be out tomorrow to inspect my new stove. Also, I was given a DVD to help me get aquainted with my stove. I want to thank everyone for enlightening me with your knowledge. Everyone stay warm!

Very nice, looks like your gonna need it this week
 
Thanks, it's supposed to snow early tomorrow morning through the afternoon. I'm glad I have the stove plus took vacation this week.
 
Congrats, welcome to the club, looks beautiful and happy burning!
 
Looks great and what wonderful timing with the frigid temperatures coming our way. Set that thing to the desired temp and forget it, after all it's a Harman !
 
Congratulations on the new insert! Since you're kicking back this week, check out the Harman website for more videos on your new best friend. Enjoy the heat:)

PS. Owner resources section at Harmon...
 
Congrats and enjoy!
 
Welcome to Harman ownership. Since you are on vacation if you have time, click on the Harman sticky at the top of the page (or in my sig) and read up on how your stove really works. Its a worthwhile read.
 
Congrats! Install looks somewhat like ours except colors (brown Accentra, and we had painted the brick hi-gloss pale green to cover previous owner's decades of soot).


BTW, we found that a used armoire can be had really cheap on Craigslist and makes a great stereo cabinet. ;)

Forgot to mention and can't tell, hope you have your stove surge protected! Smoke and CO detectors?

Glad you mentioned... the APC BE750G UPS has surge protection in it. Is that surge protection enough for the pellet stove? Yes, my house has smoke and CO protection in the hallway.

Perfect for a Harman - what they suggest in the book and what I have on each of my stoves.

Great! Now I'm waiting for the inspector to show up at my house so I can fire my baby up. It's snowing here in Jersey and the temp outside is currently 21 F

Co2 protection! Now what about CO detectors? ;)
 
Making sure her plants have something to breathe.

LOL re: my plants! I meant "CO". Btw, the inspector came out this afternoon and signed off. He suggested I put another battery CO detector in my familyroom. So this I will do. Also, I took my completed inspection & permit to my insurance company (State Farm) to have the stove added to my homeowner's policy and was told no need to add or change anything, since the stove went into an existing fireplace. ;lol

That's something I'v wondered about, have others informed their insurance company and with what results?
