Pacific Energy makes a nice stove. I have one and it really cooks.

My truck is like your frozen bubbles today lol

Right on I love this video. I seen your other video and I actually have the same stove as yours a Super 27 if that’s what you’ve got, but mine is 30 years old. The only thing I really did was I modified the baffle I drilled extra holes towards the back because it would never put out any heat once the coals burned down a bit in the front and now that I’ve drill those extra holes in the back it really helped it out. After I watched your other video about the modification where you put the hinge on the side panel I was reading somewhere online and apparently the reason why they put those side shields there is not only for tighter clearances for an install, but also supposedly has some sort of convection where it sucks in the cold air from the bottom and spits it out the top. I tested it with a piece of paper and I sure don’t see a whole lot of air movement other than just the regular heat waves, causing the paper to move. It doesn’t get cool enough down there and I think for that to work you would have to shield in the bottom and then run outside cold air. Just like what you did with your stove pipe. One thing I’ve noticed is that when the stove gets down to the coals even when there’s still a bunch of wood in there, but pretty big coals, if I open the door, I can raise the temperature in my living room about 8°C in 5 minutes. It was -44 here the other day and so what I do is I would open the door and just kind of babysit it but I had an idea that I could build a door with a screen but instead of it fitting flush like the way the regular door does I would basically build a box, and it would all be screened in that way if any sparks fly out they would just land inside that screen versus out onto the floor. I find with my stove that once it gets down to the coals, it does put out heat, but so much of it is going up the chimney pipe wasted and you open that door man it just kicks out the heat you can’t stand any closer than 5 feet away from it. I only need to do that when it’s super cold outside and I just do it a couple of times and then eventually throw more wood on. I do have some fire bricks that I put underneath the stove as well. There’s a little cubbyhole under there so I took all my old fire bricks and some new ones that I have for replacement and I think they help radiate the heat inside the firebox. Plus, I have some slab rock that I put on top of the stove. I just have it on the one side though but it seems to radiate heat longer just because there’s more mass there. Also, I have one of those little fans I got off Amazon and everybody says they don’t work or some people say they don’t work but I’m telling you they work 100%. I only heat with wood I don’t eat with anything else so I know this place pretty darn good without that fan going all the heat just stays mostly in the living room and it has a harder time getting to the rest of the home but when I put that fan on it actually starts to defrost my windows halfway down my house that will normally just stay frozen. If I don’t have the fan on plus I can just tell the temperature at the far end of my home farthest away from the stove. It’s just much warmer back there. I have the one that’s got the dual fans on it and I like it so much that I’m gonna try the one with the three fans see if it’s any better but I can hold a piece of paper 10 feet away and it will still be moving the paper the trick is is to start closer to the fan and start walking away and as you walk away, you raise the paper higher and higher so it basically blows the air on an upward motion so many people say these things don’t work, but they actually work good. The other thing is people keep burning out their fans because they set them right in front of the stove pipe. Plus they’re sucking, hot air vs cooler air from the edge of the stove like it’s supposed to be set up. I have mine right on the edge of the stove towards the front. It doesn’t get nearly as hot and uncomfortable in the living room now because that heat is moving around and I don’t have to get up and stoke the stove as early because my personal alarm clock kicks in when my house gets down to 10°C lol 🍻

Thanks for the tip, I'll be sure to pile the snow up to the top of my skirting to keep my mobile warmer, cheers from N.S. 😊

cool jaja

That's pretty cool.... sorry, I mean "hot". ❤

80 degrees in the house? That’s blazing

Nice video thanks. Do you think your outside air pipe would help in a downdraft situation. I get some nasty downdraft sometimed

you should make a ranging fire than pack it full logs for long hot burn
