Harbor Freight had them for less than $5 last time I checked...
Most of the time stoves are going to seem more quiet in a showroom over a room in a home just because a typical showroom is much bigger than a room in house.
I wouldn't count on the dealer to know everything. I had my harman installed last fall and then saw on here that someones floor was scorched under their hearth pad. That got me looking into the hearth pad requirements and what the dealer provided me with. They gave me a type 1 pad which is only ember protection. I had to explain that the stove needed a type 2 board which is a thermal protection. It took my dealer a few weeks to do their checking to make sure I wasn't lying until they finally said that I was right. The current manual for my stove on the harman website doesn't have the same requirement but there is no way id recommend only using an ember protection board with a P61.I was at the Harman dealer to purchase pellets and asked if there was any updates to the auger assembly on their stoves and was told no. However the stoves running in the showroom "seemed" quieter than mine, auger motor and pellets dropping into auger assy...than last year..

and some of the mods that are up-and-coming........*shiver*.....recent mod to the foot plate on the P61 now makes it OK to use just ember protection...the P68 was like that for some time but its easy to see, if they are side by side, how much more air space was build into the 68 than the 61 of a few years ago.
Ok that makes sense now why they took the thermal protection requirement out. Thanks for the information!recent mod to the foot plate on the P61 now makes it OK to use just ember protection...the P68 was like that for some time but its easy to see, if they are side by side, how much more air space was build into the 68 than the 61 of a few years ago.
