englander 24acd burn time?

[Whitepup]

I have been using an old Earth stove for 20 years, and want to finally replace it with a cat stove for longer burn times.

Please help, Can seem to find any info. Thanks

Uh . . . do you have any specific questions about stoves with catalytic combustors?
If you have some specific questions folks will be more than happy to tell you all about them . . .

Welcome to the hearth.com by the way.

Yes, what is the englander 24acd burn time?

Burn time depends on a lot of factors...including type of fuel, weight of load, and how the stove is operated. Rick

Here's the manufacturer's manual for it:

Thanks for the info, but I still am not sure what the avg. burntime is. Blaze king advertises 40 hour, Regency advertises 30+, but I am not sure about the englander 24acd. Also, I have an 8" flue from using the old earth stove, doesn't look like the Englander stoves have a 8" product.

So far as I know all Englander stoves have 6" flue collars. There is a very knowledgeable and helpful member here who works for Englander. He probably knows a thing or two about this old stove you're asking about. His username is stoveguy2esw, his real name is MIke Holton. I imagine he'll find this thread and have some comments.

Paging Mike to the front desk.
IIRC Mike Holton had one of these stoves. It was suppose to be a decent burner.

i ran one in my home for over a decade, usually i saw burn times in the 7-9 hour for a full load with good oak, less with maple or other softer woods. good solid stove. if looking at a used one pay very close attention to the cat itself. make sure its sevicable as they are about $175.00 for a replacement cat.

Well, I decided to go the non-cat route, cause I could not pass up the smoking deal on the Englander NC30 thread, and this is what I went with. Burn time is 10 hours, which is pretty good for a non-cat stove. Thanks for your help guys
