    do I need a damper for this Jotul Castine?

    F400 or F500: what size Jotul to replace an old VC Vigilant?

    I'm looking to upgrade our trusty 1977 VC Vigilant and I'm looking at both the Jotul F400 Castine and the F500 Oslo. I don't have any experience with EPA stoves and could use some advice about which is a better match in terms of heat output and burn time. We use the Vigilant as the sole heat...
