Hello everyone. I have been burning with a Lopi Revere insert for the last 5 years. I picked the stove up used for 450 with the ss liner and blower. It was 8 years old when I got it. I did a quick paint job on it while it was on the trailer before I brought it inside to install it. It looks like a new stove. This thing heats my 1000 sf ranch pretty good. I have had to install the new re-burn tubes last season as well as a door gasket. Overall very satisfied with it, but wondering if I need an upgrade? I am burning 1 yr seasoned oak. That I am sure is causing it not to be as effecient as it should be. I load it around 9 pm and at 5 am there is a really nice bed of coals. This seems great to me. Any thoughts, info, input would be appreciated. I can take some critisizm as well, so dont hold back.
thanks
