I thought this might be of interest to some of you on the forum. We had this installed today, just in time for winter! Pretty excited to finally have a fire in our house. This is the first year the local council has allowed new fires (provided they are ULEBs) to be installed. Unfortunately we have to wait for the council to inspect before we can start burning.

Very nice. Keep us posted on operation and performance. That is a very strongly radiant stove and totally mesmerizing in action.

They look impressive - what size room / area are you trying to heat with that? i assume you are fully insulated? They're quite expensive but pretty flash.

Our house is an old bungalow but it has retrofitted insulation. The room it's in is about 40sqm, the whole house is 120sqm. This was actually the most affordable wood fire we are allowed to install (some of the others are twice the price!).

Wow, I think you have the first install on here of that stove. I love that thing, when you switch the lever and it goes into secondary it throws some serious heat and gives you a light show to boot. My only issues with it is price and firebox size.

Normal winter temps are between -5C (23F) and 8C (42F). Sitting on 1C right now (9am).

Not so bad for winter temps. Our current temp here is 13C/56F Supposed to be spring but the pellet stove is still getting some use...

Yeah we are lucky to have mild winters. I'm hoping it snows this year, it normally snows for one or two days every second or third winter. Everything shuts and we all get a day off work or school even though there is only about 10cm of snow.

The weather and temps sound similar to ours in the Pacific NW. Normally we don't get much snow at all, but occasionally we can really get dumped on. Fortunately this is rare. If we want snow we go up in the mountains.
