I am Newbie to the forum as well as pellet stoves. My Ecoteck Monica is in unpacked and ready to install.
Fielding opinions on OAK. Not sure I want another hole in the wall if I can't feel the difference using the OAK. House has all new windows and doors and is on the smaller side of square feet for this stove. If I cant detect a draft, is the efficiency and/or burn worth adding the OAK?
I've read that using inside air early and late in the season (cant remember your term) helps due to the drier air. It would be nice to swap sources for combustion air if this is the case. I am installing with minimum clearance and won't have room to add a valve.
Appreciate all feedback.
