    My wood burning stove used to be identical to this one. That's when I discovered catalytic blaze King wood burning stoves. Where my stove like this one would take 3 or 4 hours to heat my home that blaze King would do it in an hour.

    Heat travels from a hot surface to a cool surface, a basic law of refrigeration. I suggest insulating the cold intake duct.

    In a sealed house (modern windows) you pretty much have to crack a window 1/8 inch if you don't get the air from the outside. I have had times where two stoves are burning here and I got light-headed from low oxygen and needed to open window. If you have an old house with some cracks under doors... things like that... the air will be pulled from there. No need.

  • @wobdeehomestead
    @wobdeehomestead ปีที่แล้ว +1

    If your house is well insulated and tight yes good idea to have outside air intake. If it’s leaky cold air is coming in anyways. Besides fresh air is good for you.

    • @JimmyMeatwhistle
      @JimmyMeatwhistle  ปีที่แล้ว

      I guess the thought is, if it's -30 outside, I don't want to be sucking that cold air into the building when I'm trying to warm it up.

      @@JimmyMeatwhistle interesting fun fact had my home pressure tested after replacing one of my wood stoves because the place I bought it from suggested I get play fresh air intake and connect it to the stove because when it was in full operation and burning a full bore fire it was actually pulling a negative pressure and it also sucks out the heated conditioned air. Discovered the counter to that what is a fresh air intake basically what that does is it pulls air in from the outside instead of pulling the air from inside and blowing it out without the air intake it was actually sucking freezing air in around my door jambs causing my wood stove to work double to keep it warm. Found out it is the same principle when you have a gas fired furnace if you don't provide them with fresh air from the outside play will eventually smother themselves out because they eventually burn all the oxygen out of the air.
      With the clean air intake it just pulls the cold air from the outside and puts it right back out the stove still puts out the same amount of heat if not more.

      If you pull air from outside you will definitely heat up quicker. I have done this in my own house and burn 2 less cords of wood per year. If your pulling air from inside your house and its 20 degrees farenheit outside your pulling that air in to replace the air that went up the chimney. Basically a no brainer. It's like leaving a window open, air will come in under doors or wherever it can.

    I have owned both a soapstone and regular steel/cast iron stoves and I prefer the soapstone stoves if it is your main source of heat. They hold their heat for a long time and put off very nice heat but, they take for ever to get hot. I would find a nice steel/cast iron stove for the cabin, they heat up way faster. Either way good video, im curious as to the results.

  • @BrianDoherty-e8s
    @BrianDoherty-e8s ปีที่แล้ว

    If you read the instructions that came with your Eco-Fan, you are suppose to have it where you can get cooler air passing over the top fins. It is not suppose to be in front of the stove pipe drawing hot air across those top fins. If you put the fan back at the rear of the stove it would run a lot stronger. The object is to have the top of the device relatively cool while the bottom is hot. That temperature difference is what makes the thermo-electric plate in the middle produce the most power. You can also eventually kill your fan by running it as you are making it too hot overall.

    • @JimmyMeatwhistle
      @JimmyMeatwhistle  ปีที่แล้ว

      Well, it's still running. I guess you are wrong 👍. Not a bad run for a $30 fan.

    • @BrianDoherty-e8s
      @BrianDoherty-e8s ปีที่แล้ว

      The instructions with all these fans say to not place them to draw hot air off the stove pipe. It's your fan so you can defy the engineering if you want, but for longest life and most fan speed it is best to have the largest temperature difference you can across the thermo-electric plate between the top and bottom parts of the fan. And if your fan stops working sometimes you can renew the conductive paste between the plates to bring it back to life. @@JimmyMeatwhistle

    i see lights which I'd assume you have electricity. I run a small 60 dollar fan that's common on amazon. brand name. stainless steel. I put it on low against my stove and within 10 to 15 mins of the stove coming to say 400ish on the cast part itself...I am sitting at 25c+ in 1600+ sq feet. obviously I'm not trying to preach, you have other circumstances like a full building that was at incredibly low temps and you have to bring the energy in the structure up. But the fan regardless makes a huge difference vs. sending it up the flue.

    Question; if you leave the draft/damper open for both tests , doesn't that defeat the purpose of the cold air intake? or do you still need the draft to control the burn? My stove isn't on an outside wall so I can't use the cold air intake so I'm hoping your it doesn't make a difference lol.....Thanks for the vid.

    • @JimmyMeatwhistle
      @JimmyMeatwhistle  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      When my draft is open at the bottom of the stove that's directly connected to the cold air intake so any air getting into the stove is 100% coming from outside. I'll disconnect it off the bottom of the stove for the second half of the test, just waiting on some stable temperatures
