i juat bought and set up my first chinese deisel hewter in our barn during that last cold snap. it did so well that i intend tk purchase a few more over summer (i figure the price will be at its lowest then) the deisel i used in it had been sitting in a plastic jug for 3 years burned no problem. I will be going with that for our backup. i am always considering other options ofc (thats why i am here) and you might be too, thats why i am leaving the comment.
lol that thing could almost be part of the furniture in a miniature train town. For it to be overall practical for the average applications given for your square footage, you at least need to start with something twice the size. And let me guess, was it made in communist china
Nope. Canada.Good company. Yes it could be in a mini railroad.Right up my alley. Pellet stove is the primary. If shtf so much that we have to drop the pellet stove all together, we can install a full sized woodstove. At this point we can go about 16 hrs on the pellet backup system.
@@countywoodswalk WoW GREAT to hear that is Made In Canada! Both Canadians and Americans need to support our own factories instead of funding countries who are communists and they also make junk
Looking like to much work for cutting up wood and the space it's capable of heating A pellet stove offers more there're pellet stove models that don't need electricity to run everything else the same except how one gets pellets in Sted of cords of wood I have a pellet stove I will be honest there are things to learn there are pros and cons but over all its a huge savings on the heating bill a bigger advantage and is why I am all in
Also firm love for pellets. There is no way this could be a full time machine.Emergency back up, spring and fall warm ups and likely the mail burner. We do have a battery back up for the pellet stove and a small set of panels to charge the batteries if needed.
@countywoodswalk that sounds very smart we home owners fight many battles only to name a few things here it's all Good not so if nothing is learned from the experience 😉
@@countywoodswalkin theory, the pellet stove should be able to power itself. If you are down for a bit of DIY engineering you could probably hook up a thermoelectric generator to it. A sterling engine would do nicely. They are elegant and incredibly quiet. Once the fire is going inside, it should generate electricity to power itself.

Fantastic! We have to find unconventional ways sometimes!
Honestly, the cat was a better show of scale than the door.
My hubby said the same thing! Lol!

There are people of all beliefs everywhere. Live and let live. But Canadian made is the best.
Kindness and love to all everywhere!

That sounds really cool!
It is a wild ride for sure.Learning new things and tweaking the systems on the daily.
