Hi all--

I'm wondering how hot I can safely burn my Oslo 500? The manual says that the most efficient temp is 400-600 degrees. But if one isn't so concerned with efficiency, then how hot can I burn it? And what are the risks of burning it too hot? It gets the house nice and toasty when it's around 700.

Thanks for any info. Ian
