I'm actually kind of excited about the idea of explaining to my wife how I'm setting up a squirrel rave.

I have a Jotul f100. This is older and discontinued but was in great shape and came with the house.

Do you burn the stove continuously? I light mine when I get home in the evening but even loading it up at 10pm everything is cold by 6am. I haven't even tried burning it while I'm away at work because it seems like it wouldn't have a chance to really get going. I'm totally new to all of this having previously lived with central heating via natural gas furnace.
