The one I have was free and good thing to. After one year the top split end to end and the entire tarp slid down to the bottom on both sides. Both the door and back wall are still like new. I don't know why the tarp split but it looks like it rubbed so hard on the peak that it melted through. Just a guess. In the spring I purchased a bale tarp big enough to rap over the top and it lasted one season and did the same thing. I think when I cover it again I'm going to wrap some foam or something around the peak so the tarp doesn't have metal contact. Now the neighbor has had one for over 10 years and no problem, so it could just be tarp quality or aliens, I'm not sure anymore. I hope you have great success with yours.

I'm a bit late to the party, but had a question - if you start the day by putting a fire in the firebox at the bottom, does that heat up the pizza oven to the point where you could cook in it, or do you have to put a separate fire in the pizza over firebox as well? If the former, you could do that, and start a fire mid-day, and have the oven hot enough to bake dinner in, correct?

A thoughtful & well articulated commentary - Thank You.

The traditional fireplace in my 1925 Craftsman home PUMPED OUT HEAT, which * no * standard fireplaces do now. It was also very easy to clean and to use... The brick flue in the brick chimney had a * large *, long iron flue "door", which could be gradually opened and closed from a convenient brass fitting that poked out of the fireplace at about rib-height. The iron absorbed and held heat, and the large iron "shutter" could be banked to allow * only * enough space to get CO out, but reflect all the heat back into the living room. I could stand also slowly adjust how open the I feral flue gate was, and feel the amount t if heat pump back I to the room as a result. It also had a FLUE PIT, a brass plate embedded below the logs that yiu could pull back after the ashes cooled, and then simply sweep all the ash I to the pit (and the basement). Super easy. Super clean. The crap they bud now renders a valid heat sound to cosmetics alone, so u lose ALL heat, and u have to squirm your body around to actually stick yiur armpit up the chimney to (completely) open or (completely) close the flue. Crap.

Here in Finland Tulikivi is the most thrusted brand. Used materials and well planned fireplaces as this gives nice even heat and clean burn. I used to have one and saved money during long winter on heating bills. Thank you for nice video👍🏻

On your question; Is it worth it? The answer is absolutely YES! But on a generational home built outside of the city limits, because everything in our "modern" day cities is built to be consumed and fully renovated or destroyed after 50 years. It's a shame that we don't build homes that last for 100 years or more without needing serious repairs within that time span.

How big area does it heat … how many do you need for a big house?

Where is the showroom? And what makes Tuliviki different from others?

Dave, I'm in TX and looking at Tilikivi products more for the cooking than for the heat, but in the winter months in TX it can get cold. So, how do the pizza's turn out? Thank you, Eric

hello ,do you know if that tractor ,,is it front pto ? i have an 1870 and i dint believe it has front pto

What you have there is a woodfire effect electric heater,, dontya?

If that “backdraft” happens, the problem is simple. The flue is too cold to “draw”. Place a bundle of flaming newsprint in the fire box to heat the flue. It’s that simple.

I’m selling my LX 3310 and getting a new 2620. I wanna get away from the epa engine. The smell/smoke it puts out burns my eyes when. It firsts starts up. I only bought the 3310 because the dealer said I would need the extra horsepower over the 2610 back in 2021.I only run a 72”mower deck with it. The 3310 has been decent but it has almost 500 hours on it now and I fear that epa system on the engine failing someday and having to deal with that. The 2620 should be all I need.

It is not a pizza oven!!!! It is a bread oven. ”baking” oven. The idea is to make a large batch of putty(?) and light the fireplace. Then when all is done you bake multiple batches of bread. Historically dark circular breads with a hole in the center. The breads would be stored in the celing and would preserve for weeks and be out of reach of rodents. So BAKING OVEN

This product if from Finland where I live. Those are very common here, expensive but people usually put one on their houses. Typical use is to augment the heat pump in the winter to safe energy. It a little hobby also to make firewood. Also gives you security if electricity would go out. Typically they are 12k usd installed so not cheap. You are not supposed to heat it too much. It is stated in the manual. 1-2 fires per day.

Hey, thanks for sharing your experience with your Tulikivi. Im not sure if you are familiar with the " upside down fire" method but I think you may be interested to check it out. Basically you lay a "foundation " of larger firewood in your stove grate followed then by gradually reducing the size of firewood for x2 upper layers finishing with kindling on top. You light the fire from top (newspaper or birch bark) and smaller pieces catch fire first creating good draught & priming chimney to get up to temp. The smaller pieces then topple down & help larger pieces take off nicely.

Good that your dog has his own chair near the fire 😊

Ty

How Much Did it Cost? That's important information

To move the heat into that spare room. There is a small fan that gets mounted in the top corner of the doorway. That should work.

Cool cover thanks for sharing.

I noticed that you close the air control lever on the firebox door during your fire. In the instructions it says not to close until the coals have burned completely out. Also the instructions say to only have the grate damper open when only coals remain. Then to close once fire is completely out. I’ve had mine, like yours but with a bench around it, for 5 years.

Beautiful home

The Russian have used this for probably 900 years. No new thing

Very nice job Dave. I agree if you have power out there get the fan kit to vent all the moisture that will be trapped inside. Or maybe a small solar setup to power the vent fans. Good luck, Dan 😊

How long do your fires burn? I used to have a Finnish masonry heater and the idea was for the fire to burn as hot as possible and burn out as quickly as possible, to get the most efficient burn and derive the most possible energy from the wood, as some gases only combust above 850 degrees celsius. My fires would usually burn out in around in 1 hour and I'd leave the ash door completely open during the entire burn for max air intake. I don't know if a Tulikivi operates differently though.

I GUESS YOU’RE LUCKY YOU DON’T LIVE 10 MILES AWAY🙏🏼❤️‍🔥🇺🇸

what a great "how to" video for wood burning. we had wood burner in past and learned also the importance of warm chimney.. GOOD JOB!

Nice video, well said. We have had our tulikivi for 14 years. We live I central BC Canada. We heat are 1800 sq ft home very nicely. I have a fresh air duct coming into the fire box which I can control . Works good for the days when we have poor draft. We purchased a fire box insert from our tulikivi installer where we cook on after the fire has gone out . Works very nice. Thanks again for a very informative video to

Oh man. Been there… glad you’re all good

Bog down = needs more HP, but impressive for an LX2610! Very capable.

Looks & Sounds like to high a gear and to low rpm for those conditions. LOW gear & at a minimum PTO rpm if not higher. Also tire chains on ALL 4 wheels. Take & slow & steady & you'll be ok. Don't do those things and have fun on your own............

I'm looking at purchasing this machine and this video put alot of my concerns to rest, thank you!

Wow 😮

I used four 5 gallon buckets filled with concrete. I placed an I-bolt in the middle and used ratchet straps to weigh the structure down. They also make stakes out of rebar that look like a giant nail. I bought some but didn’t use them in gravel.

Hello. Thank you for this very interesting video. Could you please tell me precisely what model you have ?

We have a Tulikivi 2200 that we had designed into the house we built as a backup source of heat in SW Montana. It has now become our main source of heat in the winter instead of just a backup source of heat. Great video with practical information and insight.. For us it has been worth the cost.

Looks like it's fairly sturdy. Too bad they didn't have a vent at each end to provide airflow.

Good job! Maybe drill a holes at alternating angles thru the 4x4 and drive some rebar down. We used corkscrew type anchors that we bought separately because we didn't know the kit came with some but the ones we bought were a bit longer and heavier gauge. Our site slopes down from the door to the back wall. We have 6x6's (like your 4x4's) sitting on one or two cinder blocks on the back corners to level the frame. Chicken wire was attached to the outside of the 6x6's and dropped to the ground and folded back 90 degrees to go back inside. Around 20 ton of gravel later we had a level gravel floor that also serves to anchor the structure. It's tough to get the wires from the auger anchor to the frame tight enough to actually snug it down. If I did it the same way again I would use something a little stronger than chicken wire.

Hi Dave, Good start. That will be a nice bridge until you get your actual garage built. That storage area under the deck looks huge... Very nice. Dan 😊

Good luck, Dave. I think you made a good decision. Can't wait to see the follow-ups as the winter progresses.

That was a good epiphany to have! We got two years out of the original cover of the shelter logic. I think its the same size as yours. We ended up buying the extra heavy duty replacement cover. It has withstood over 60 mph winds. A push broom with soft bristles works well from the inside to push up on the cover to make the snow slide off.

That's a decent price for the kit. You may get a few years out of it where you're sheltered.

It seems like a giant radiator. I rather have a hot water system with radiators in every room for nice even heat. These are large, expensive, and require a fair bit or work. How about an outdoor wood boiler? If I had one of these, I think I would want it in my basement. Maybe have a Hearthstone soapstone wood stove and a actual wood stove in the kitchen. Maybe even a Pizza oven too. I do believe every house should have a primary and secondary heat source and wood is an awesome choice. The problem with wood, unless you have a wood boiler, is the uneven heat. Mordern heating is so nice and even and the floor in the heat is the best in my opinion. These are too bulky and expensive and unless you are in good shape, feeding and maintaining it is going to be difficult. Thank you for your video. You did a great job explaining it.

i have a Tulikivi as well (12 years) a little bigger than yours .... but i have to fire min. 3 hours that the full stove get hot .... than 12-16 hours later the same again ... i will never buy it again .... now this stove cost about 18 000 USD (in Europe) to much work and to much waiting time before it goes warm ... only for 2500 USD you get stoves they are way more effective ... :) sorry for my english ...

Wondering why you don't close the door when entering the wood.

Hey neighbor…. Great videos on the pizza oven!!!

I need to build one this fall!! 🖤

I'm looking forward to winter 24/25, forecasts looks good for beneficial moisture out west for us. We need it......and I want snow LOL. These compact Kubotas are incredible machines. I sure wouldn't mind an MX6000 Cab HST.

Thanks for the video it was very informative and totally believable and honest, you know how it is sometimes things don't go according to plan but watching the video I would say that it looks like you only lost one quart if it was me I probably would have just put in a new court and let bygones be bygones but a great video thank you so much you definitely have a new subscriber subscriber my name is Glenn and I live in Brockport New York
