Woodstove is working fine....

Today, Saturday november 6th, I fired up our new woodstiove at 7:15AM this morning. Soon the temperature rose to 22 degrees. In the afternoon we let the fire die to install a fan at the backside of the stove, and as the sun was shining brightly thru our front windows the temperature stayed up. After installing the fan and firing up the stove again the inhouse temperature reached a stagering 25 degrees Celcius, the stove is not even fully loaded. So I think we are good this coming winter, although it's not really cold outside tonight; only +2. Our, for over one year, seasoned poplar firewood ignites within 15-25 seconds or so where 90 seconds is the "norm". The moisture percentage is about 17%, 20% or lower is recommended. Wood dries fast here in Alberta.
