So with this bloody cold snap the stove just can't do it. It is -13 outside, 75 downstairs (stove floor) & 59 upstairs & the sun has not gone down yet! Even if I crank up the thermostat to 76 - 77 (30' away from the stove) the furnace will kick in, bring the temp to that level & shut off..and the stove will maintain that temp. for a good while (30 min) before the furnace kick in again. Not enough to warm up the upstairs...
Wife & the kids are complaining!
Do I let the stove cool for few hours or what...maybe I should move the thermostat to the furthest point on the main floor.
If the outside temps stay around 20's then I have no problem upstairs stays nice 65, but this is just a bit too cold even for me.
