I spent some time this weekend updating the outlet next to the hearth from a two prong to a properly grounded three prong. I also ran an 18/2 thermostat wire from the hearth to an interior wall in my living room. Snaking the wire took me a few frustrating hours but I figured the installers would just slap it right next to the stove. My last chore is to pop up on the flat roof near the chimney tonight and blow off any leaves and debris. Hopefully I don't get any last minute calls with bad news, it's been a long long wait!
My stove was finally installed on October 1st. The install went well and I am pleased with the unit so far. I would highly recommend running the thermostat wire ahead of the install. It was pretty clear the install guys were not prepared to snake the wires where I wanted it. It was well worth the wait but I feel for those of you who are still waiting. It was a really frustrating five months but I feel in hindsight that my dealer did the best they could. Thanks to everyone and good luck to those still holding on.
Good luck Groundhog we where praying for you.
