We had tons of smoke coming out of the Stove and now we will fix it by extending the flue a bit higher with proper dimension pipes.
Make sure you subscribe to follow our daily lives in this farm!
Hey to everyone!!
We are two young adults, Despina 22 and Deivids 23 renovating an old farm house from 1817 in Latvia. Everything in and out of our house has been done by ourselves with no hired help. Soooo far everything is going great and there haven't been any incidents.
DIY is going to apply to nearly everything in our house. Our budget is tight and that has made us appreciate every "ugly" part of this house and turn it into something new and beautiful.
We give new life to things that others would throw away!
In this journey we are not alone! We are starting up our little Farmily and part of it are
3 goats
4 chickens
1 rooster
and 2 geese
Oh yeah and my cat Ivi
Despite our daily problems we are two young people full of joy and happiness, ready to start a new crazy chapter in our life. It wouldn't be fair to keep this fun for us!
that's why we want YOU to be also part of our Farmily!!
Hope you enjoy our video!
We love our very supportive community!!

You seem to know more than what you show, I'm relieved! Seeing your young age I have wondered how you two manage. Not meant in a "what can those kids possibly know about fixing a house" rude way (like I'm a builder to talk).... more like "if I started a project like this I'd need more safety measures" way (like with the roof...It was kind of scary when it happened. xD) I'm glad to be learning alongside with you, glad I subscribed to your channel and very curious about your future updates. Your hard work and positive attitude also keeps me coming back. Thanks for sharing! :)

You need to build a mass heater, just like the old cooking brickmass Stove you demolished at the beginning, in the kitchen. With subzero temperatures, only a mass heater will ensure enough heat , day and night. You cast iron stove is fine, but it does not have enough heat retaining mass for your climate.

@sandrasandilands769 3 жыл бұрын

Well done... I had every faith you would find a solution for the fire... it's lovely... I always think a real fire not only gives great heat but you feel warm just looking at it... gives a very homey feel...I hope it heats your room enough but I'm sure it will once you have had it going for a while... the house has been relatively cold for a while now so might take time to heat the room and the walls up but you have insulated well so I'm sure it won't take long xx

@DoBeDiff 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you! 😊❤️ It might take a while but mostly it cools down fast cause the main door isn't insulated or sealed 🤔

The wood burner is much more efficient because the heat is in the room with you. I suspect you’ll get a lot of heat out of it.

Well done! But please pay attention to the place where the pipe touches the roof. As you have some wood shingles under the slate. The pipe gets very hot sometimes and you may get a problem there.

@DoBeDiff 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you! ❤️ I have checked it and its not even close to being warm, I mean we have -20 outside but still it looks good no problem. The pipe is leaking black liquid down from top I hop the smoke isn't too cold and creating slag in sides of the pipes, I am not sure of the terminology as I know the words in Latvian not in English but it's this build up in the chimney caused by smoke cooling down too low. Anyways thanks for your support and help! ❤️

@anthonychistoff9190 3 жыл бұрын

@@DoBeDiff es diemžēl nezinu latviešu tik labi lai saprot to terminoloģiju 😁 Būt yes, Black redidue can be because of two things: the smoke is cold (that's the second reason why the external pipe has to be insulated normally), you use wet wood or wood with a big amount of resin. For example birch, pine, vai egle. Anyhow, you need to clean the pipe at least 2 times a season according to security rules. So it is very good that you have a condensation thingy below the external pipe. You can open it up and clean it without getting a lot of dust inside the house.

@DoBeDiff 3 жыл бұрын

@@anthonychistoff9190 you speak quite a lot tho! Yeah we want the insulated pipes next year they come as blocks go straight through the roof, we first want the roof replaced and also the location of the chimney isn't the best as there is a wood support beam directly on top also on top of that is roof beam supporting the roof so needs to be more aside. It's a mess these old houses. Best would be central heating 😁

@anthonychistoff9190 3 жыл бұрын

@@DoBeDiff well, I installed a fireplace with water contour. So when I fire it, I get central heating and hot water for the house. Very economical. But now I came to the conclusion that for the house it is better to have a solid fuel katlu. The best thing to avoid hustle and dirt around the house. And also with wireless attachment from aliexpress you can have digitally manipulated sistem which can be started and controlled from anywhere in the world.

The pipe going through the wall is too long and will clog.It would work much better if it went out of the wall diagonally. External pipework should be insulated.

I don't think one could do, what you two do, here in Canada. Everything here is controlled and regulated and cost a lot of money. Lot's of red tape. you would need permits and have everything o.k.ed and have to pay lots of fees and there would be lot of red tape. It would be near impossible that those bureaucrats would allow all that. I so bless your project and wish you the very best. You have and are working so hard. I hope the worst, meaning the dirty work is done soon. You are awesome guys.
