19 full cords yes I did a lot of tightening up. I had an audit done still lots to do ugh the guy said that the unit should heat this whole house
I have a 200ss like yours heating 5500spft burned 15 cord this year oak half dry about 35%moisture average . Had it for 19 years now . Anyway I read a lot of your posts . One thing I can only come up with is water seeping in trench for starters . I will take more time and read more of your posts to catchup
my house is 1976 and 1991 double wide ya both in good condition for there age .
But not parade of homes energy star that's for sure..
one more question trench dirt are you in sand light soil or heavy clay . Just a note if its heavy clay your just making a long pool
ya I'm in heavy clay here been down that road it makes for erratic wood consumption .. Im only guessing why it take that much wood .

p.s. Oak in my standard wood so if your burning soft wood you'll burn alot also. wet wood record here is 1 cord wet ash lasted 5 days
and that was on 10f to 5f days ya its crazy. still have mental scaring why I even thought to haul ash home. Moisture meter habor freight 15 bucks will shed alot of light on wood moisture .
