I spent over a year reading and researching, finally pulled the trigger on the 80,000 btu beast a couple of weeks ago. Then spent the last two weeks fretting over the details of the final installation. She is already eating 24 inch logs, with 8 of them in there right now.....I have not yet hooked up the connection to my existing duct work, I want to burn it for a little while first, maybe install the rest in a week or so....
