Loading too little?

[Jls667]

Last year I got a Timberwolf T25I insert. I love it but I've been hesitant to fully stuff the insert in fear of it being too much. However, when I load up say 3-5 splits I'm reloading every 2 hours which feels way too frequent from what I've read on this board.

It's a 2.5cu box, should I just load that thing to the brim and let it go? What would be the best method for a nice long burn?

Yes, load it up for a long burn. Make sure the wood gets going, turn it right down, walk away.

Thanks for the quick response. Turn it right down, I assume you mean lower the damper?

Correct

You can also use larger splits. They burn slower.
