Lots of news this week. First we got our new fireplace insert installed on Monday. Then on Friday we signed the final papers, and, six months after taking possession, got the clear title and deed to our cabin in the woods. On Saturday we celebrated, by starting our first fire, and opening a bottle of Champagne.
It was a real challenge finding an insert that would fit into our 23" narrow stone fireplace. After a lot of research on the web I found this Regency I110, manufactured in Delta, BC. Despite its small size it still generates a good 55,000 BTUs of heat, and will take about 4 medium sized 18" logs.
I've got a feeling that this little slow combustion stove is quickly going to become the focal point of our country home.
After about 24 hours of burning, the stone fireplace finally got nice and warm, and even a small fire keep the whole house warm as toast.
