Well, we are finally getting our first cold temps of the season. Going to be 14 degrees this evening and a high tomorrow hovering just above freezing. It is amazing how well the PH heats. Yesterday morning early I put a few small splits in the stove and brought the stove back up to around 400 degrees. It was still at 300 degrees in the early afternoon. It holds heat like no other stove I've ever used. My wife loves it because the house is no longer between 62 to 68 degrees. She enjoys it around 75! Welcome cold weather....we are ready for you now
