Isle Royale set up and working! Hope the pics turned out ok. Installed on the main living level, 6" single wall 24 gage into an internal Masonry chiminey with a rectangle clay liner 25 feet to the top of the roof. Great draft all the time. Blaze king Ultra downstairs into same chiminey different flu. That is an 8 Inch for the blaze king and has about 8 more feet of flu. Draft is better on the Isle Royale due to the longer straight section out the top of the stove prior to going 90 deg. into the Chiminey. Royale 90 degree section is only 15 inches deep to the clay liner opening so it draws real well.
I love the stove but I am only able to get pine to burn so my burn times are not what I would like them to be. 9 hours is pushing it event with it loaded full (from the front) by folding the andirons down and inserting the biggest 1/4 splits I can get in there. No problem with 20-21 inchers going in. Havent tried a big round yet for overnights. Air turned all the way to the right. start up air off.
Really like the top load for keeping it going durning the day. very easy and I am amazed at how there is no smoke escaping out into the room when you load from the top. Very convienent!
Any techniques for longer burn are welcome....I envy you east coasters for he hardwoods !
