How's your stove holding up to the frigid temps?

[boomhour]

BUT your air quality is GOOD!

No. There is always smog in Ottawa or is that up at the Senate?

That whole 4 square city blocks is just a cesspool.

-26C or -15F currently brrrr!

had to adjust feed to 4, heat to 4, blower to 5

-20 here back the '80's here remember getting on my snowmobile, rode it 20 feet and said F This!!

Actually quite cold but t hat probably has more to do with a leaky house and not great wood. The house is sealed MUCH better than it was two years ago but still no tight. 46 was the lowest it's been when I get up in the morning and I have a hard time getting above 65 in the day. I also work 8 to 10 hours a day which I'm sure makes a difference. If someone was here to stoke the fire all day I might be quite cozy. Blaze king next year lol

Whoops just saw this was the pellets place ll

Yearly ride up in Rouyn-Noranda in Quebec and the worst we had was minus 48 with a wind chill much lower than that. Coming out of New Liskeard, Ontario we lost one sled to the cold. We doubled up and left it. We said the same thing you did! But we still went back the next year!!

[Phil Do's fire.]

Once I got the crappy Currans out of my stove and put in the Cleanfire Pacifics, all is well. My Italian stallion pumped out the heat.

toasty mid 70's burning cheat rivers and chow

 

[Bioburner]

Harman chewing though a fair amount pellets and the Ecoteck happily using horse bedding pellets for a AM and PM hour bump. 5 below zero this morning with a fresh 3 inch snowfall. Glad I got the snowblower patched up.

 

[kenstogie]

Would it be a buzz kill to mention that since its cold and we are rippjng through pellets our exhaust vents may be getting dirty and need to be cleaned. Of course that would never ever happen to me as I clean mine on a very strict schedule at exactly the right time and yea that's all BS my pipes were very dirty.

 

[ScotL]

My PB105 seems to work a lot better now that it's running hard. When we had that -25F night it really ate through the pellets but it's been running great even though I haven't cleaned it for 2 weeks. I better clean it out really well this weekend.

Where getting a heat wave thru the weekend going to get into the 50's going to burn MWP instead of My barefoot and heartland.

 

[briansol]

Dry creeks are bad.? Thought they were a decent pellet.

 

[boomhour]

Exackerly. Loaded up the stove today, with MWP and put 10 bags of Somersets on the porch for later in the week. How warm was it? My honeybees were out flying this afternoon.

 

[Danny9909]

Warm enough that I'm about to turn on my stove now for the first time today. Burning MWP

 

[boomhour]

Nice to know that it was -32 last night at home, as we are in sunny Florida, neighbour is keeping the stove up an running for us

 

[farmboy57]

3 above this X-MASS morning the vistaflame 170 running smoothly.78 in were the stove is, 72 in the livingroom only on setting 3 best thing i ever bought

 

[St_Earl]

NOAA called for 0f tonight here. it's already -9 at 10pm.
i wonder if tomorrow night's forecast of -19 is similarly underestimated.

still wearing t-shirt and shorts.

*eta - they just updated to -11 for tonight. they're sticking w/ -19 for tomorrow night as of now.

 

[Big E]

Kept the Big E on 3 all day, got up to 24 here today, currently 15 F outside, 71 inside...using 2 bags of Barefoot's a day

 

[tfdchief]

I used to fight it a little when it got really cold, but not anymore. Having 2 stoves makes it a lot easier.

 

[chken]

Below zero here on New Year's Eve, in mid-Maine. Stove on 3, burned 2 bags today. I expect to burn 2.5 bags/day for these real cold days thru Saturday. Interestingly, 2.5bags is roughly equal to 6 gallons of heating oil, which is what I used to burn on really cold days pre-stove.
