Temp holding at 68 in the house, only using 1 stoker. I'm impressed with the 140, never thought it would hold the set temp..

Wicked nice out today!!
Had to turn the stove WAY down.
Lots of snow melt.
Shoveled my roof off yesterday. Had four foot drifts on the front.
Roofs are comin' down all over Mass.

It is 73 in our house, which is also what the thermostats are set at...the joys of a stoker boiler. Last winter my handfed boiler would drive us out of the house on a day like this.
