nice I say, look after the glass slats not sure they are available now, this is my wood burner that I am warming my feet on right now, Rick

incidentally had a Green Deal energy assessment done and I got 81 which is bottom of B group A being highest and G lowest so wood/solid fuel stove = very good, Rick

Still waiting for my Green Deal inspection, taking ruddy ages

it is total crap but the powers that be like crap, so we give it them and if it makes life a little easier great, this I can see going the same way as the energy surveys that were going to be required when you put your house on the market, forget what it was called but absolute nonsense, Rick

yep part heats our water as well, but only put water tank at rear, need to do both sides as well to get maximum gain, water tanks are in place of the fire bricks, Rick

Sorry Pete if that is aimed at me you will have to explain I am a bit dumb sometimes, Rick

 

[makeitfit]

Ah it looked like you had a glass scraper there AND a clean window :augie I suspected a sooty shave and a burn at less than 300 degrees :lol

 

[R1cho]

Make one u say hmmm

 

[solarman216]

yes I sort of worked it out after a while, the wood we are burning at the mo is only getting to 150 but it lasts along time and am still sweating, and yes best way to clean the glass is a Stanley blade, temperature in here at the mo 23 C, Rick
