i've been putting at least 2 x 40lb buckets in about every 18-24 hours depending, We had subzero nites (-10 last nite) and it max'd at out FR99 on the coaltrol and JUST keeping up. I only have the HYFIRE 1 with a custom heat jacket, extra blower and it just keeps the living at 64 degrees running full out. Between this stove and my keystoker, I usually burn at least a ton a month.

-2* here last night. It looks like I'm averaging about 160# every 2.5 to 3 days. With 160/180 10*diff and DHW for 5ppl.
