New Blaze King

[nortcan]

I just pull the trigger for a B.K. Ashford 30.2, the only one available here in Québec near my location was an enameled brown. With the cold time we get , a real stove is a must...lol. The B.K. will replace the Hearthstone Heritage TruHybrid. All wish is to have done a good choice on the Ashford. The main reason to go for a B.K. is all the good comments here on the forum, I also read good comments elsewhere too. The 30.2 is about the same size as the Heritage, so the stove will be able to do the job. The long burning times and the thermostat are some of the changement. The stat seems to work differently from Vermont Castings ones and give good results.

Like how the tiles carry up from the floor to the hearth.

The stoves is just arrived, I was not shure how the brown would be, some brown stoves are not of the best color but anyways, it was that brown one or a black as we wanted first , but a black one would be available in ??? weeks/months ???
Finally we are very satisfied with the Chestnut Brown Enamel color.

As mentioned by @begreen, I too would love to see BK do another run in grey/blue.

What's the chances @BKVP ?

I upgraded my house stove from a modern 2006 vintage hearthstone heritage to a BK princess for primary heating. It was an excellent decision. Long and controlled burns saved us wood and increased home comfort while decreasing effort. If your chimney is correct then you should enjoy the upgrade!

I hope to finish the works soon around and back of the alcove for the Blaze King, that stove is much deeper than the Heritage. The chimney is an interior one, 18 F. plus the black stove pipe.
I wonder what mean the : .0, .1, .2, on the 30.0, 30.1, 30.2 on the Ashford model, some other B.K. stoves have also these numbers.
The stove seems very well done.

30.0 was from testing before 2015. 30.1 was testing after 2015 and 30.2 if for testing after 2020. EPA requirements resulted in industry having to retest. Even when stove remains unchanged, you must change the model number.

We never did blue/Grey. We did do white at one time.
