[QUOTE="vvvvvvv, post: 2707048, member: 5151"] We have one in our trailer. We have a vent duct running from the intake through the floor so that it draws in cold, dense air instead of scavenging heated air. Once it's going, a 4x16 log of oak, blackjack, or bois d'arc will last 3-4 hours and keep the house above 70F even when it's below 0F outside. If you place a log on and close the intake before going to bed, it's still smoldering hot enough 6 hours later to throw another log on. We go through around a cord per year heating 950 sq ft. If it's below 40F outside, the stove is burning because the central electric can't keep up. [/QUOTE]
