granted, it's only 55 outside...but I'm going to enjoy it as it is so rarely warmer inside than out!
We had our flues cleaned today for the first time since we started wood/pellet burning middle of last winter. The sweep really liked the XXV; he gave it a good once over with his super duper shopvac and spent some time admiring how easy it is to access things, in addition to looking great.
It's now set on low, 55 degree room temp, and yet still cranking away with a low flame with a bag of Green Supremes I got at the end of last season.
Thinking maybe something's not right with the thermostat....but anyway it's nice to have a fire again.
Figured I'd share the chimney sweep's comments in case it's helpful to anyone who's on the fence about the XXV. He's not a dealer, but he sees a fair number of pellet stoves in his line of work.
Can't wait for 2 ton delivery on Monday!
