the folks at downeast coal are outstanding,cant say enough good words about them!

Hi cbc6,
Glad your happy with everything. The Maine winters will be a real test.

Do u idle the stove during the day or actually shut it off and re-light it at night?

In the spring (May)I would shut my stove off in the morning and relight it at 10:30 or so in the evening. I got good at making an idle fire in about 15 min. Anyone can make a ripping fire in 15 min but an idle fire takes a bit more of a gentle touch.

The igniter from the Coaltrol people mght be good for you. A timer would work well too.

shut it down around 11pm and relight at 5:30pm give or take,outside temp in the 70's this past week during the day.wife hasnt been warmer,nor me,since we left wood heat in aroostook county.
