So Crazy Alone how just two weeks ago you & Kenai there & Tali girl & I here were challenged to keep warm! And now you aren’t having to stoke the fire there & it is still in the 60s here at 10:00 PM! I just love days like these that go easy on the wood pile! I think you know that I, like you, heat with a wood stove too. However Old Man Winter isn’t about to let go of us just quite yet. Stay warm my friend!

New subscriber here. I wwAs raied up in a log home, using a wood stove. Im a firm believer in using wood for heating and cooking, especially when the electric goes out. Another old standby is using kerosene lamps for light. I just wanted to say that I admire and appreciate what you are doing on on your own. The area you are in is wonderful and you are living the dream in Alaska that many of us will never get a chance to do. My wife, Susan is a hard worker around the house ,even with 2 knee replacements, 1 neck surgery, and a hip replacement, she keeps things running smooth with help. We are an older aged couple and just wanted to say hello and want to encourage you to keep pushing forward with the work. By the way, your dog is such a sweetheart.

James and Susan thank you so much for the sub! I really do appreciate that! And yes wood for heating and cooking is amazing! Cooking with cast iron just cant be beat! I have a few kerosene lamps that where gifted to me by viewers and I love the ambiance so much, sometimes I will just turn off the lights and light the lamps. This life has always been my dream and I did so many years of research and studying before coming up here. Alaska is just amazing to me and I will never leave! Susan, you are an amazing lady! Sounds like nothing stops you from getting stuff done! You both should visit Alaska at least once! You would not regret it! Kenai is an amazing dog! We protect each other. Kenai is a sweetheart and he likes to cuddle but if he shows his teeth while growling, it can be scary even if he is just protecting me! It is an honor to have you both along for my journey here in Alaska! You can live vicariously in Alaska through my channel and will never have to stack firewood or shovel snow! Thank you so much!

You are doing a great job!! After living in the Colorado mountains remote the last 5 years, i have added an electric space heater as a backup "just in case" I've got all three forms of heat similar to yours as well. Wood is #1, propane #2 and electric if those fail. Propane thermostat is set at 55-60 degrees so that water inside doesn't accidently freeze. It only took one year running out of propane accidently to ensure that never happened again...The only other thing that happened with me was during Covid and I got terribly ill. I had to use a space heater to get warm enough to even get energy to load the wood stove or move the thermostat. It has a remote by my bed. I only use in an emergency if my body gets chilled beyond my ability to move. I am 53 and Disabled.
@AloneinRemoteAlaska
@AloneinRemoteAlaska Год назад
LOL yes running out of heating oil wont happen to me again either! Once is enough to make you always remember! A space heater is something I need to buy as well. If I get propane eventually I will have 4 ways to heat my cabin! WOW you got Covid even in the mountains of Colorado! Not that its impossible just you sure had your “social distancing” down solid! But you gave me a great idea! A remote to turn on a heater to I don’t have to get out of bed in a cold room?? HMMMMM I like it! Thank you so much Marissa!

Here’s a suggestion. Cold air is denser than warm air so it will move easier. Try placing a fan on the floor in a cooler area pointed towards the stove on low. This will push that cool air towards the stove and the warm air will naturally flow to the other area to replace that cooler air creating a convection loop. Also ceiling fans should be run in reverse during winter. Blaze King makes a great stove with their thermostat control so I don’t think it would be too much.

I still can't fathom keeping the cabin at 50-55 degrees. I set my Toyo at 66 during the day when I'm inside, 62 when I leave, and 60 at night. (I used to set it at 56 at night, but it was not comfortable when I got up. At 60, I am comfortable enough to do things for awhile before I wonder over and turn up the temp.) On days when it is really cold, I will supplement with a space heater for an hour here and there just so the Toyo doesn't run nonstop. I just had heating oil delivered yesterday. The delivery guy and I figured out I used 87 gallons over 64 days, or about 1.36 gallons per day. I got a discount from Crowley because I had maintained easy access to the tank. (That was a lot of shoveling, but worth 20 cents off per gallon.) My insulation sucks. That is something I'm going to have to address this construction season.

Jim, I think its time for you to get a wood stove! 🤭 I do understand not wanting a wood stove as it does require some extra work though. Wood sheds! Wood bucking! Wood splitting! Wood stacking! Feeding the fire! And maintenance! I bet once you get the insulation part corrected, you will be too warm! 50-55F is perfect! 😉🧡

Love the outtakes at the end, you always make me smile and laugh! That’s cool your cabin stayed so warm upstairs. I remember one winter in an old house I helped to renovate, it was built in 1903, we burnt through 13 cords of wood. The following year we tore out all the walls and floors, insulated everywhere, rebuilt it...that winter only burnt 3 cords! ❤ Thanks for another fun video. Blessings and much aloha 🙏💜☮️🌎☮️💜🙏🐾🐾

Your doing the right way with your Woodstock and your fsn circulation around. When we lived in Wyoming my daddy always used our Wood stove and burned wood. Mama and daddy we had cattle and sheep as my mama's nickname was 'CATTLE CATE' Daddy would make sure we had plenty of warmth. Even living in our homestead in the country on our two and half acre in California, daddy still brought our wood stove from our homestead in Wyoming. Your very intelligent Alone, thanks for all your videos. Yes coffee is an all day thru out every day life. God bless you 🙏 ❤

Staying warm with wood fire is amazing and cooking on fire, especially with cast iron is even more amazing! WOW does food just taste so much better! I may enjoy my cabin being lower in temps (like 50-5F) but that’s because I am always hauling water or firewood and just keeping busy. The exception being my day job and working on RU-vid which ties me to a computer, tablet or my phone. Warmth is a good thing especially when it gets so cold here! When I had my house cleaning business I could function all day with two cups of Starbucks! Wasn’t healthy though! Thank you so much Cindy
@jamestboehm6450
@jamestboehm6450 Год назад
An upgraded stove sounds like the right way to go. Ceiling fans to push the heat back down into the main part of the cabin full time? Wood is probably a bit less costly than oil but much more work. Your choice of where you are at has it's demands on what you are going to have to do to maintain warmth.
@AloneinRemoteAlaska
@AloneinRemoteAlaska Год назад
The big fan I showed is the ceiling fan I chose to get because it was directional and it can oscillate. It does such a great job pushing that warm air downstairs. Like a full force heat blower! I do love the firewood heat best but definitely need to get a more efficient one with an outlet that draws outside air directly. Then the oil burner can stay as a true backup. Thank you so much James!
@twobears1224
@twobears1224 Год назад
If you upgrade your woodstove try to get one that uses outside air for combustion. It will use less wood and keep your cabin warmer and less drafty..right now the stove is sucking the heat out of the cabin and putting it up the chimney because of the draft. Kenai is lookin handsom and he acts like a very nice dog that is head over heels in love with you.i hope he likes the treats I sent him. Have a great weekend..you are so lucky Ito be where you are i'de give anything to be in a place like that right now.

I put our woodstove in the daylight basement and ran an outside air inlet. The 4” pipe was radiating almost as much cold air as the stove was heating so I put 2” EMT centered inside it and filled the void with foam. I also used a shop vacuum valve as an inlet damper. It works great. .
@AloneinRemoteAlaska
@AloneinRemoteAlaska Год назад
Outside air is a definite for my next wood cook stove! 100% happening. Kenai is a momma's boy. If I leave him in the cabin he will follow me to every window he can. And now that they are all covered up I can hear him still follow me around the cabin. Oh he loves the treats and I give them to him sparingly even if he begs for more! 🤣 You will get here someday soon! Just don't give up on the idea. One day you will get your chance and when you do, run like crazy and never look back! 😉🧡

I normally don't buy useless stuff so when I do buy things I will try and buy good quality stuff. I just like nice things and tend to take care of them too!

Something that doesn't require electricity! I am happy you are enjoying my videos!

A wood cook stove would’ve a great replacement for your wood stove. Heat, cooking, baking & a reservoir of hot water does it all. The new ones are extremely energy efficient. Since you have electricity, you might invest in a portable infrared heater to augment your heat on extremely cold days. I have a small one in our Pond Room that takes the chill off on really cold days. It’s on wheels so I can roll it away come spring. It’s quiet & very efficient.
@AloneinRemoteAlaska
@AloneinRemoteAlaska Год назад
I have seen the infrared heaters you are talking about and may get one as I really should have a space heater here. A wood cook stove will happen for sure someday! That is a dream of mine and I guarantee I will get one. The oil burner will stay since it can keep my cabin from freezing should I choose to venture out for a few days. I may consider another wood stove just to have as backup but it would be some time before I can get to that. If I button up the cabin better, I may not need anything more than just the wood cook stove. I will need a good wood stove in the greenhouse though.

I have extensive experience with the Toyotomi Laser 73 heaters. One is my primary heat source. I average 3 gallons per day with the set point at 69F. The tic tic tic during warmup is metal expansion. Those fan noises are not normal. I suspect you have a fan bearing issue with either the exhaust fan or the main fan. Mine has been in service for just over 17 years. All I hear, once up to temperature is a hum from the main fan. I have twin 275 gallon kerosene tanks so I purchase kerosene only when the price is right, usually spring to summer when no one is using the kerosene and the price drops. In the new extension to the house, I have a Laser 30 that is used when the outside temps or the north wind really get cold. That one is set to 66F. Both heaters usually run 1 to 2 deg. F higher than set point and I set the temp back 5 deg.F at night. House size is about 1500 sq. ft., not on any open plan. Open plan's didn't exist in 1860! Many hallways and doorways. Thru wall transfer fans work great on low (20" box fan, w/o the box).

Greetings Alone I pray the new year is treating you and Kenai well. Thank you for the update on your heating adventures. We also use a woodstove and toyo stove to heat our shack. Were you have lots of air space to heat we have very little space to heat so we do not have the same problems as you have. We use the wood stove 97% of the time I would say and the toyo is just a backup. We have it set at 52 degrees and leave it there. Were you burn multiple cords of wood we burn just about a cord per year . But were you have ample space to tore stuff we have none. So there are pros and cons to both our choices. As for the room divider you might think about having something like that set up so in an emergency you aren't warming up all that space say they can't get you fuel as fast as they did or heven forbid you are injured in some way and can't get to the wood pile as easy. I know you have already thought of this as you are very thorough with your planning. But just as a backup to a backup. Thank you again. Oh and by the way it would be a pleasure to gift you a load of fire wood but I can only fit about 1/2 a cord in at a time but I would consider it a great honor to gift you a load when im already driving through to go fishing in Valdez. We usually go their in late August
@AloneinRemoteAlaska
@AloneinRemoteAlaska Год назад
Having the wood stove is awesome heat for sure and the oil burner is just backup heat. I think I like that set up and it's not like the oil goes bad. You only burn one cord per winter? Seriously? I have spoken to some people living in my area and they go through 14 cords per winter! The wall kit that Mike Falanga sent me will be saved for just such an emergency. It's actually a comfort to know I have it for such an emergency even though I know anything that can block in the kitchen will work. But it wouldn't have a cool zipper door!🤣 If I was injured in a way that I could not even get firewood, that could be a problem for sure. I know my son would come out to help and there are some neighbors around that could assist until he arrived. I'd have to be in pretty bad shape though to not even be able to grab one piece at a time! Because if that is what I had to do I would. Gifting me firewood? No kidding! That's awesome! Lets chat closer to that time as I do not know when construction will end this year. One of the projects will be to strengthen the wood shed and make it longer so I will need to fill the shed with many more cords! And I would love to meet you and Cara and Khionne! 🤗🧡 Thank you so much!

Blaze king is a great stove but they are pricey. Had one for 8 years now. The ceramic catalytic only lasts a few years then you need to replace it. So I went with a metal cat that is removable so your able to clean it as needed. Just a fyi make sure your getting the amount of wood your purchasing. Wood suppliers that deliver lose does not measures out the same as stacked does. Lose wood in a dumb truck etc is 180 a square foot and stacked is 128 a square foot to make a cord. Enjoy.
@AloneinRemoteAlaska
@AloneinRemoteAlaska Год назад
A metal catalytic converter! Gotcha! Thank you! As for the firewood quantity I have been getting, last year I got exactly what I ordered. It looked like they actually stacked the cords in the dump truck to make sure. Then when I stacked it myself I stack in a way to make sure I get what I paid for. So far this company I use (based out of the Matsu Valley) has delivered exactly the cords I ordered. Sometimes I use the wood prior to stacking but it is close enough and possibly more. But I was always going to stack and make sure! Especially for what I am paying! Love the firewood company I found. I basically only pay for his gas on top of published cord rates. He enjoys driving to my part of Alaska because he doesn’t get out this way often. I believe he and his son will literally make a trip out of it. Thank you so much Brian!

Good Morning Alone, Awesome video. Some food for thought. That toyo sounds like it needs to be rebuilt. Something to think about would be installing 2 or 3 of the small toyos around the cabin. Running wide open they burn about a gallon per day. The other thing you would accomplish is your heat would be dispersed so they should not have to work so hard. The other thing is if one goes down you are not in too bad of a pickle. Also you can set them to run on low/med/high... I don't prefer this as they don't turn off. Even the small guys are like 2k each☹️ Another good thing is rural energy in Anchorage has classes you can take to learn how to repair them. Classes last like 3 days. I like the blaze king as you can cook on that also as I do on mine. FYI I heat my basement with the little toyo and right now am burning approx 30 gallons every 2-3 months. Yes, I have receipts 😊. Okay, this is long enough. Have a great week. Hermit Out
@AloneinRemoteAlaska
@AloneinRemoteAlaska Год назад
So my cabin came with two Toyo oil burners and a propane wall unit in the arctic entry. So the previous owners had a plan to have multiple sources of heat spread around. But I turned a bedroom into the arctic entry and I don't have bulk propane on site. The second oil burner needs a rebuild but its pricey because it is an older model. The operational one is pretty old (I think) but it definitely sounds like it needs a serious tune up! I may look into these classes though! I would love to know how to fix this unit if something should happen that wasn't "running out of oil" related! 🤣

That noise from your heater is the fan. They are pretty easy to change and the heater will run more efficiently. I’ve lived in Alaska most of my life and I still like it close to 70 in our house. We burn about 600 gallons a year plus 2 cords of wood. It’s a duplex of 3400 sqft.

@@AloneinRemoteAlaska Yes the stove is a good one. I have had one at the cabin for about 20 years and it also has a fresh air intake.I used to spend 1-2 weeks a month there in then winter and most of the summers. My wife prefers I don’t go out there alone in the winter anymore. Something about being 70 next month. I’ve been here 44 years and except for a few winters in hot climates overseas I’ve spent them all here. I’m big into insulation and controlling where fresh air comes in. That uninsulated wall by your bed has to be costing you a lot in heat. A ceiling fan would keep a lot of that heat lower also.

Couple things. When sizing a heating system correctly, one needs to have a expert do a Heat Load calculation. I will let you google that if you want. Lots of factors go into the calculation. Also, LP is far more efficient and less cost to heat than a oil burner. Cleaner too. Best to ya!

LOVE the idea of the Main Heat Source and a back-up to the back-up!!! I would also put a Ceiling Fan on the 1st floor and leave it on super low to just move the air. It would help move the air to possibly lessen even the cold air. The fans will help in those warmer summer months.
@AloneinRemoteAlaska
@AloneinRemoteAlaska Год назад
I do have a regular plug in fan on the first level to move warm air as well. I find I don’t use it as much because the ceiling fan I have pushes the air all over the cabin especially when on high. The warm months are easily taken care of as I can just pop the hatch with both fans going and it cools the cabin down nicely. But having the backup heat sources is nice and I may even add propane to the mix eventually to. I know propane can run a fridge as well but I have no plans on getting a propane fridge. BUT I am looking into building an ice house. More to come on that later! Thank you so much Kevin!
