Thanks for the advice. I think I need to split some bigger logs for next year. We purchased a few cords from the previous owner to get us going. Most of them are about 2-3 inches, very few at 4 or 5. That might be the key.

Ha! I don't know, it's our first year with a wood stove. No chimney fires yet! I just took a picture of it and posted it on /r/woodstoving/ a few hours ago.
I've been keeping up with the treatment, so the glass and inside of the stove are mostly grey and not black/glassy. So, I think we're doing okay so far.
We do have a thermometer on both the stove and pipe and we've been keeping them in the burn zone. I'm mostly just concerned with running it long/low when we're either asleep or not home. We can only fit maybe 3 or 4 medium logs in the firebox so I doubt we can get 8 hours out of it. But I'd like to maybe be able to go to sleep and wake up without starting fresh.

My friend had a furnace problem for three days and had to use a space heater in his office (he is WFH).
Dude tells me his electric bill doubled last month! Watch out running those space heaters all day.

Don't you get a lot of extra creosote leaving it on low all day long? We just started using wood as a "primary" heat source, but I don't want to leave it smoking all day long, and create a chimney problem due to being oxygen-starved.
And yeah, you can revive anything that's glowing relatively easily. One small piece of paper and a couple bits of kindling and you'll have it back to roaring in a few minutes.

This driveway looks familiar! There are a lot of split lane entrances to big office buildings that look like this one.
My guess? One of the Microsoft offices.

When I worked at a health center we totally had this kind of thing audited. The company lawyer would review for any unauthorized access and she would fire people on the spot for violation of HIPAA.
It may be time for you to get lawyers involved.

If it's been 3 weeks, the data is gone. That's sad. I liked that website. I used it when we were looking to purchase land.

Well that's great for you. I see accidents all the time at my local traffic circle from people "waiting in the middle" for other folks at a yield sign.
Two or three days ago at a 2 way stop sign near me, I almost witnessed an accident because someone "waved" on oncoming traffic to take a left. Tires screeching and everything from the cross traffic.
So I guess you're lucky! I have absolutely seen accidents caused by "being nice" and ignoring the rules.

You've never seen an accident at a 4 way stop caused by an idiot? Dang, consider yourself lucky. No wonder you're so positive about driving.

/r/idiotsincars Lots of situations there if you need examples.
P.S. Anecdotes aren't straw men.

Let me rephrase your point:
"Gun safety isn't that important. Memaw is old, she can't remember things like 'trigger discipline'. When she's holding a gun and pointing it at you, remember to smile and nod".

Nope, still disagree. You're driving a missile. Learn the rules. Being old is not an excuse.

If they don't know the rules they shouldn't be driving.
Most people are terrible drivers, because of the attitude that "people don't need to know the rules".
Waving people through an intersection is a recipe for death. This has nothing to do with "kindness". You're driving a shuttle that can kill people. Follow the rules.

You're the one who spends your day shitting on other people's lives and giving out terrible advice. This is some crazy projection. Maybe get to bed and learn about housing co-ops and bonds tomorrow. Educate yourself bro.

I think it might be an optical illusion because I took it from the front. It's pretty straight, just leaning slightly. The connection makes a 90 degree angle with the wall.
How do you like your stove? We've got a second liner in the chimney for a room in the basement that we're probably going to get a 2nd stove for. So I'm shopping around a bit.
