General Outdoor Furnace Discussion / Re: Bought a house with a OWB, Questions

Thanks for the info. I am now keeping count of the logs I put in so I can track my usage. I'm only heating the house. The previous owners didn't add a side arm to the hot water tank. I'm looking into getting one next year.

General Outdoor Furnace Discussion / Bought a house with a OWB, Questions
« on: October 23, 2013, 11:57:54 AM »
Hello,
Just bought an old farmhouse with a Hydro Fire 48. New to owning and running an OWB and looking for tips and advice. I have read many posts and have a good idea on how to stack and the importance of a good bed of coals. I do have a question on burning during the mild months. I think I have been loading to much wood. With it only being 53-58 during the day do I still load it to the top or just half to keep my coals red? The draft control opens if the temp drops below 180 so I was loading it full to keep that temp up. I don't want to burn more wood then I should be burning.
Thanks for any help. Great site.
