Title: 1st Month Operation
Post by: Roger2561 on December 02, 2018, 03:07:06 AM
Hi all - I fired up my CB Edge 550 HD at the end of October.  During that time I have cleaned the reaction chamber once every 2 weeks and that appears to be schedule I'll use throughout the heating season.  I don't want the ash to get too deep.  Every 2 weeks I'd been removing the removable air channels to inspect for creosote buildup.  I haven't seen any measurable creosote in them, anything observed has been removed, so I think I'll check them monthly and clean if necessary.  Now all we need to do is wait for cold weather to show it's ugly face and see how the OWB does.  Roger

Nice Roger   Must say, that I have been using an above normal amount of wood with these temps. so far this fall.  If the trend continues this will be my heaviest use of wood for any fall/early winter.   Good luck   sounds like a success story.
