Hey terryjd, i"ve just bought (today) a Harmon pellet stove, 50000btu output to replace a Blaze King wood stove (that has rusted out after ten seasons work). I would have stayed with wood, but every year i seem to find it harder to find the time to get firewood chopped/split/stacked/cut etc (you get the idea), plus everyone i know with a pellet stove has a lot less dust in the house. Our old wood stove was 45000btu if i remember right, and manged to heat a newish (late 80"s) 2800sq ft house. On those real cold Manitoba nights like early feb, with -40 and big winds the forced air electric furnace did kick in most nights, but once the temps got back to-20ish the wood stove kept things rolling along. Mind you the house isn"t hot, i keep it around 17C/62F most of the time, although i"ve been known to crank it up sometime. We used a table fan close to the wood stove to move the air around, that worked OK especially during the day, but at night the air sort of stopped moving as much, the new Harmon has a built in fan to move the air, so we"ll have to see how that works... There"s no reason you can"t leave the fan on your furnace running to move the air around the house, but it might not move the heat as well as you"d like.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
