    Wood Stove Temperature Monitoring with Raspberry Pi

    Inspiration for the project came from this thread: Automating wood stove with Pi.

Hardware and software specifics can be found at the...

    Jamestown J1000 Temperature Sensors

    I have a Jamestown J1000 that the blower will not shut off when the stove goes out. I've replaced the 07FDB proof of fire sensor and the 07FEC temperature limit switch. There seems to be another sensor 07FDE. Could that be the culprit?

    A newbie with an inherited cast iron stove that scares me

    My wife inherited her great-grandparent's antique wood stove. It's marked as Hamilton Stove Co with a patent date of 1905. It weighs about 300lbs. My wife remembers it from her childhood in the early 80's, but we have no idea how old it actually is. It's a family heirloom so I want to use it but...

    Gas insert flame too high?

    Just installed a Mendota FV44i. The heat is amazing. You can see in this pic that the flame is reaching near the top of the firebox, and the ceramic material above it has a small red glow. I understand that the firebox is supposed to get hot, but is this too hot? Is the flame too high?

    I have been burning in our Jotul F 500 stove for about eight seasons now. Each season comes with a few incidents where the fire seems to rage out of control. But this season is different. It seems to occur much more frequently. Almost any time I load the stove full with wood (usually at...

    We had a Heat n Glo I35F installed in Dec 2015. The fan was making a high pitched squeal which was swapped out under warranty. Then, the replacement fan started making a different noise which was attributed to a wire that had somehow come into contact causing a vibration type noise. The fan...
