Back in the day I had that stove,it through out heat like hell,but sure ate the wood,one winter I went through almost eight cords. Hope your scenario is better,but still a solid heat machine.Here is a pic of my first 30NC full load. Last year I was using mostly eco bricks due to moving and not having good wood. I didn't want to do a full load of bricks. Looks like snow here in WI with cold temps coming next week. Bring some wood in before it snows!

You will!Looks great to me. I just bought one two weeks ago. After 30 years burning a large huntsman. I love it. Hope to use a lot less wood.
You burned 8 cord in a 30 nc in one winter?
I heated my entire 1800sq/ft house with just the stove last winter November through April and only burned 4 cord. Went 46 days without having to restart it.
One upgrade I did this year was going to the larger Englander fan system. The new fan is way better than the little one that came with the stove. I usually only run the fan on medium or low but the larger fan moves a larger volume of air, heating up the basement area quickly.
Is there a link to this fan on Englanders site? Is it any quieter?

No, he was talking about the big Huntsman that I replaced with the 30.I pushed over 7 cords through the side door of a 2.3 c.f. modern hearthstone heritage about 9 years ago. 8 through an nc30 seems reasonable if the load is big and long.
