So although I pretty much ran the stove nonstop since around Halloween, I didn't burn any where near the amount of wood as usual this year with the mild winter. I've gone through maybe 3-1/2 cords and had split 2 for next year by February. I have about 2 cords worth of logs to split and only have space for 1 more split. I still have 3+ split on hand.

I really want to split another cord but don't want to risk doing anything stupid in the process that would warrant an emergency room visit and catch the Kooties :eek::D:ROFLMAO:

I haven't heard that since I was like 10

burned my usual 2+ cords - still have about a cord & quarter left...

Ran pretty much non stop since Halloween as well but started to taper off end of March/beginning April. Still burning occasionally to take the chill of & prevent the heat from coming on. I have another cord ready to come in for next year (unseasoned) but don't have the space in the wood shed for but maybe 3/4's of it. Gotta figure out where to put the other 1/4.
:unsure:

Just started a fire now. This chilly wind really sucks the heat out of the house. I too burned far less this past season. I have close to a cord left over. It looks like a couple more chilly days though so a fire at night will feel good.

Yeah, the last week or 2 week I scaled way back but woke up to a cold house a few mornings and fired it up again. The next few days will definitely keep it running.
looking back at what I typed a few minutes, wasn't very clear
3-1/2 cords still left unused for what was ready to burn this year plus 2 additional split this year gives me 5+ so far for next season

At least I'm enjoyin' the ride.....

Possible wind gusts to 70mph tomorrow. Might be a good wood collecting week coming up. Be safe all.

If any of you guys need a new stove , epa regulations change on may 15th on new wood stove emissions and all non compliant models have to be sold or junked if not sold by that date. I have a few I need to get rid of ( I'm a fireplace dealer) a few in my store and can get more if people want . High end stuff at 50 percent off list maybe better . Only a tight time window left. Just saw this thread seeing if anyone was catching blackfish lol. Figured I would throw it out there.

Would you post the store and location. If not publically posting it can you send me a PM?

I'm assuming you are referring to stoves not yet sold or installed by that date and is doesn't effect stoves installed and in use for years correct?
Mine was purchased and installed about 5-6 years ago and at the time was deemed efficient on emissions.
I'd also like to know where you are for more info....

I'm in Copiague? Captain Soot. We are not really open because of this damn virus stuff but I can meet people individually at the shop. The epa rule does not affect stoves that consumers already own only what can be sold as new. I have a few freestanding models here I need to sell. A vermont castings defiant in enamel finish, a napoleon s4 and a Vermont castings encore. I have some other stoves and inserts available through distribution channels that need to sell as well ( at least I'm not stuck with them) but I can have shipped to peoples houses directly. Most are half price right now.

Are they putting catalytic converters on them ore something?

Been thinking about an insert for mom's house. Maybe it's time to take the plunge.
