hey guys and gals , i got up yesterday morning and began my install project of my harman p68. i started around noon and finished up around 4:30. i could have finished sooner but i had no help, so i had to keep running in and outside. i had to go through brick for my install and i was kinda worried about that, but with the help of my new dewalt hammer drill that i got off of ebay, and a masonary drill bit it was a piece of cake. i waited until this evening to start her up, i wanted to give the owners manual another once over. well so far so good. i was kinda worried though because i smelled smoke in the house but i quickly realized it was the coating on the stove burning off. for now i have it on room temp , feed rate #4, blower on low and the igniter set to manual. i will see how this works for a while, and fine tune it later. i decided not to do the (oak) for now because i want to see how it warms the house with out it first, plus there is a chance that i might be relocating by next summer so i didnt want to drill two holes in the house just in case i do move. im trying to post some pics but when i do it says that the attachment is too big, how do i make it smaller?
 
Pictures, or it never happened. %-P
