The 602 is an excellent classic stove. I've got an older one without the glass & round damper vent up front. Hope you you enjoy the 602 in your cabin for years to come. At about 8:48 she said do do 😊

Anti seize compound on the wing nuts would stop any issues with binding entirely. You can buy it at the auto parts store and its designed to have zero problems in very high heat situations. Pro tip from a non pro. lol

Verry nice stove in a Great hide-away cabin.

Bigger stove is always better. Longer burn time,because the length of fuel and holding capacity,more colective heat sink,more radiant capability. Less time in between refueling.

we have a 500sqft cabin we are looking to heat. why did you choose the jotul over a cheaper stove? we were not wanting to spend thousands o a stove (especially a small one) right out the gate. we are building a larger home and a really nice looking efficient stove will be the desire but this is a permanent structure that will only recieve full time use for a season. i really want to go more affordable yet every recommendation is 2k. any suggestions for a budget friendly stove

We went with the Jotel it was something we wanted to look nice in the space and it was the smallest stove we could find that was cast iron and could fit a 16” log

I had some friends who built a place on Lasqueti Island back in the 70s. They lived there until the 2000s...Bill and Carol Rode/Eggert. They had 80 acres on the south of the island. It's admirable what you have built. Great use of space. Many mimic what we have done. Been off grid since 1984. I liked and subscribed.

what do you do when it freezes?
@OnIslandOffGrid Жыл бұрын
At the moment we turn off the water and go back to a jug. Here we only get about many a week or two of below freezing temperatures. I am hoping to insulate the pump and the little amount of exposed piping.

How are the burn times?
@OnIslandOffGrid2 жыл бұрын
Hi Paul, it depends on what you are burning. In the shoulder seasons we try to burn fir and lighter woods as we don’t need to much heat. In the winter we burn a mix of fir and arbutus. With only fir it will burn most of the night but most times be out or smouldering in the morning. With arbutus or hard woods it is something burning 🥵 into the morning. It’s a cast iron stove so it holds the heat so that keeps us warm with windows open all night. We do live on the west coast so we have fairly mild winters compared to central and eastern Canada and US. Hope this answers your question thanks for writing and watching. Looking at make making an update video to this one soon.

I just watched. Exploring Alternatives. I just subscribed. It sounds like a very interesting life. I’m one of these Southern Belle types who has to have my husband do everything including bug killing. So you are completely exotic to me as a woman who does everything herself. I realize your husband does lots of work as well. You just seem incredibly independent. This water issue seems overwhelming to me. Y’all are brilliant.💖

Trying to find out approximately where you are, and recognizing the surroundings as I am an Island dweller myself, I came to your channel. It’s lovely to find you! I shall be watching what you’ve posted so far and watching the video on Exploring Alternatives on your house.

We have a very similar cabin that we’re building on our property on the Sunshine Coast in BC, (probably not too far as the crow flies from you). Ours is 8x12’ with a wrap-around deck on two sides. We opted for a cubic mini as we didn’t want to use up valuable floor space. We’re now adding a wall tent on another part if our retreat, and are interested in learning where you purchased your wood stove. Also wondering if you could share the floor plan for your cabin (doesn’t have to be to detailed). Cheers, Karen
