Here it is before,
Here is the insert starting all fired up.
Another shot, looks like fireworks in side.
And one more setting on low after burning for about 15 minutes or so.
I know one thing it was too hot today to burn it very long. The installed said when it cooled down open up the house and burn it on high for a couple of hours, to get that new paint smell burnt off.
So that will give me some time to read the manual, I know there will be a learning curve but I think I will like it. The install went real easy, no real surprises the only thing even after I thought I had cleaned very well, as far as I could reach when they put the pipe in still lots of black soot came tubbling down, well it seemed like a lot, all the tables in the den and kitchen counter had to be wiped clean. We will have to tackle the rest of the house tonight.
The pellet brand is Country Boy never heard anyone here say anything about them here on the forum. Since of course never owning a pellet stove I have no idea if these are good or not but that is what the installer sells, so I thought I would get a ton and buy a few bags here and there and see if one brand is better than another. They don't seem to have much dust in them but I have nothing to judge them by.
I still need to get a 12 volt battery, so if the electric goes out, I did purchase the cable that hooks to the battery and man it was way over priced 29.95 for about two feet of cable, one Red wire one black wire, with rounded ends on one side of the cable and on the other end two push in type connectors. I see nothing special about the cable at all, they are still in the box I will take a picture of it and post that picture also, but it will be later today or tonight.
I am not sure if my journey has ended or just begun.
Hope you enjoyed the pictures, I always like it when someone post pictures of their stove.
