Buford: If you get a moisture meter, and your wood is, indeed, dry, then maybe I am not as smart as I thought. Any wood should be dry in seven years. Do you have it stacked under a roof, or what?
If that wood is dry then please go over to hearth.com and see what they say.
I'll go check that site out. Thanks for the link.
I do plan to get the moisture meter but my wood is in a woodshed that has a roof and is only open on one side. The floor is gravel. The wood is stored in the back, stacked on pressure treated lumber so it is not on the gravel floor.
For the record, I enjoy my stove. I use it for auxiliary heat. Usually, it is fine for Alabama cold (think 30 degree nights followed by 65 degree days). I'd enjoy it more if I could keep the heat pump from ever coming on.
Thanks for the info.
