60 is a bit cold for the Wimmens in my house. And being a pyro at heart I couldn’t help myself.

I want the fire burning, and almost need a bit of supplemental heat. My house is very much in the shade, in a cooler spot than cool Olympia proper, 10 minutes west of downtown, toward the ocean.
Ours was a warm sticky rain. AC running. But down to window fans soonSo it’s been raining all day, thank God! And the house is on the cooler side and started a fire. Some windows are open for fresh air but the burning season is creeping ever so slowly. Day by day and this thread needs a bump.
Yes, pipes are great. We got a 8" dia flex liner installed, and the draft is very strong. If the stove gets hot enough it sort of goes into thermal runaway where the draft gets so strong that it can draw too much air through every little crack and leaky gasket with the air vents shut.My wood burning furnace is back up and running after I replaced the chimney this weekend. Picked a good time to do it actually. This warm weather was nice since I heat primarily with wood. This stainless double wall drafts a lot better than the old clay lined masonary chimney did. I’ve gotta relearn some things now. Burns much hotter with less air it seems
In the old house I had an insert like Kyle, I did it every year for a while and never got much out so only did it every 3 or 4 years.
Did this one just before winter this year and got about a dustpan full after 4 winters. So with burning only good hard wood and the secondary burner it makes a big difference.
