I realize variables occur such as insulation and pellets and all things to consider but really how big an area are people heating and being comfortable with this stove?
My house in a 2 story, less than 1300 sq ft house, no insulation- almost 100 y/o house.
If outside temps hit under freezing, it can't keep up at all. I'm sitting in here with 58 degrees downstairs and that is running one space heater downstairs and one up. I'm ready to scrap it. I spent a chunk of yesterday pulling off the pipe outdoors and doing a vacuum of the exhaust, cleaned all ash inside I could get to with a vacuum and a small hose attached. Not better today.
