Happy Friday hearth members; been a lurker for a long time and decided to become a member and introduce myself. We built a home in 2016 and installed an RSF Opel 3c after exhaustive research and comparisons (I wanted a wood stove but my wife like the fireplace look). I have learned a ton from this site about functionality of an epa stove as well as wood harvesting. My side job I work with a certified arborist and so access to wood is not an issue. My home is roughly 2900 sq ft and the Opel does an awesome job. Not new to wood burning, grew up in a house with a fireplace and my in laws have always had a wood burning stove. Thanks to the help and knowledge of this forum, I’ve recently helped my parents install a new Jøtul Oslo (my mom is not a wood stove fan but loves the Oslo) in a house that didn’t have any wood heat. I must say this is a great forum with tons of knowledge and help.
