You will never leave Maine alive. Get out the chipper boys!

The rescue party has just left for him. We'll save you pal! ;-)

Call off the rescue party, the chipper is on the way to my house, looking for me.

I have burned 70 bags

 

[Dinger]

72 bags since December 1. Stove has not run over medium overnight, and only very little assist in the furthest bedroom from the unit. Even with a semi mild winter here, I have another setting if needed in an extreme winter. Best of all, no propane heat, and no cold girls.

 

[bbfarm]

66 bags and zero fuel oil since the pellet stove.

we have only had our pellet stove since the week before xmas.

we burned 150 gallons of fuel oil before the pellet stove

 

[h2ochild]

145 since October.

 

[Weird tolkienish figure]

I just counted what I have left and I see I have burned 113 bags so far.

About 20.

 

[bill3rail]

17 bags since 01 January.
Oil consumption is low, but unknown at this time. We use oil for hot water.

[nailed_nailer]

Around 75 bags here.

50 bags (1 Ton) of Maine's Choice.
25 or so bags of Okanagan's

I bought 2 tons for this year so far.
1 each MC and Okies.
Gonna pick up a 3rd ton this week.

For the warm winter we have had that will carry me into next season no problem.

200 and counting since mid-November. Have some efficiency improvements left to do haha.

 

[slangtruth]

what in the world are you heating with that many BTU's?! wow!

Assuming you're asking me, the ~2k sq ft. first floor of a solid but uninsulated 19th Century building with uninsulated heating ducts, boatloads of huge windows and 10' ceilings. The 130K+ BTU oil furnace struggles with it (both floors), the 60K tops Revolution is way underpowered for the task, but adequate for the first floor since it's been a mild winter.

 

[Turbo-Quad]

157 since fall. About 45 in January. Mild winter. I was expecting to burn much more.

 

[kcellwood]

142 bags since install of stove in Sept 2011 thru Jan 31. Not a drop of propane used so far during this heating season. Why, why, why did I not install a stove years ago......

 

[jrogers999]

200 since October. Had oil burner on for 8 hrs total this season.

 

[edwinjk]

Hey Guys:
I have burned 2 1/2tons & 0 propane. Down here in Southern Ohio, the winter has been mild,
40's during the day & 20's at nite. I started with 5 tons of American Wood Fiber, so I have more
than enough to last this winter. Mama likes it warm & the house has been 72-73F.

 

[teddy1971]

110 Bags since Mid-October and 150 Gallons of HHO since Aug. 8th. Not bad for a 3200 sqft House (@ 70+ Degrees most of the time)

 

[GrahamInVa]

52 used so far since mid Oct. Thermostat set on 71. My average is 0.44 bags a day. I am heating 2200 Sq ft. Upstairs heatpump thermo set on 69 and usually comes on at night a little bit.

If the mild weather keeps up I will use less than two tons!

Loving my electric and gas bills! + keeping my house at a much warmer temp than I used too!

I was at 135 bags Jan 31st. And with mild winter have kept it warmer than ever before. So I'm enjoying it!!
Ask myself the same question, why I did not install pellet stove years sooner???

 

[BadDad320]

About 170 bags so far.......

 

[Pelletfisky]

110 bags and probably could have burnt less but my lil one was born in Nov so keeping her warm is my goal!

 

[imacman]

Just put bag #100 in the stove. Averages out to .9 bags/day since I started burning on Oct. 20.

 

[mepellet]

110 bags and probably could have burnt less but my lil one was born in Nov so keeping her warm is my goal!

Congrats on the pellet piglet!

 

[perchin]

We just loaded bag number 12 ... Of course we have been only running the woodstove so far this mild winter.

 

[PA_Clinker]

Around 110 bags since Halloween, using this stove as our main source of heat.

 

[letsblaze]

I went back and recounted my stack.. Somehow I had miscalculated. I have only used 52 bags! Nice...
