Let’s talk about firewood

I have for 13 years and am very pleased with it. I can bank it up and come back the next day and still have heat. I just fill it up and in a short time it's burning again.

If I have a good bed of coals and fill the woodbox with madrone it will burn for 18 hours before I need to stoke it. And it's unnerving how little ash is produced.

Growing up in a 2000 sq ft house with terrible insulation and a junky insert we would burn about 8 cords in a winter.

My house is considerably bigger and I get by with 2- 3 now.
 
Not like its cold, we just were excited to make the first fire of the Fall.
Love our stove!
If that is the first fire of the fall, your wife has hotter blood than mine. Temperature dips into the forty's and she is insisting that I start a fire. Doesn't matter if it is going to be pushing 90 later in the day.
