- Compact yet strong, the Aspen wood stove adds warmth and style to intimate spaces. When every element is meticulously crafted, quality speaks for itself. With no manual controls, this is the simplest stove you will ever operate.
I’ve always been a Jotul person (I’m in Scotland, so quite close to Norway) but Vermont are an excellent stove, and very well finished, in enamel paints, and I know the Americans, like the Norwegians make high quality goods. Sadly no dealers anywhere near me, 👍
Similar experience - since you have no control, you are at the mercy of their intake system. I have fresh air intake installed and a vent with no bends. It doesn't get more straightforward.
While I've worked out how to get it to burn OK (not great), the design pushes smoke to the front of the stove. When you open the door, and there is any smoke, it is coming into your room. This mostly happens as you get a fire going. Once you have it hot, the smoke is not as much of an issue.
The exhaust design is a head scratcher. If I had a mulligan, I'd get one with some control of the air flow and exhaust near the vent.
After the dealer struck out getting some guidance, I sent the CEO a note for any guidance/assistance. Crickets. I'd recommend an alternative unfortunately.
This is what happens when someone from the EPA that never lit a fire dictates stove requirements :).
Bought this stove for my cabin a couple of months ago. The handle for the door has already broken and I really hate that you can't adjust the damper yourself. Looking at using the air intake soon.
Nice,
Hello from Russia 👍
I just bought a house with a Vermont Castings Aspen C3 stove and it does NOT vent. The minute I close the door it stops burning and smokes up. It appears to be new and I cannot find anyone in my area to come and look and tell me why it is not working. Frustrating! I live in Dallas, Oregon.
I’d call the fire dept, ask for them to ck it out. They will be helpful.
Thanks looks great
Can the Fresh Air intake be vented from the outside if the unit is next to an exterior wall ?
So if you get a cold snap you can't manually open the vent for a bigger fire?
it does it for you ! just light the fire add the wood and let it do it's thing!!
@@charleswhite3299 ok cool.
I would like to know if the Aspen C3 requires as much maintenance as the Encore. This is the deciding factor in purchasing.
The short answer is no. Just remove ashes and load wood. We designed this to be the simplest stove to operate and maintain on the market.
Automatic damper hidden in the stove, another thing to go wrong and no way to know it?
Stove does look appealing. The art on the side not so much. I am looking a Jotul black bear 118. New one left over before epa. I like the looks of this stove other than the art on the side
Worst wood stove ever! All it does is smoke. You can't open the door, to put wood in, and you can't give it air while lighting it. I have 4 wood stoves in my house and have had 7 wood stoves in my life and this is by far the WORST!!
Size?
We've owned ours for over 6 yrs now and it's a grand little stove. About 24" tall, 22" deep and 15" wide. We got ours in the red enamel and it's still like new.
Would this work for a 1350 sq feet
This stove has a back vent that poors smoke into your home if the wood isnt perfectly dry -- not a realistic design. I am very disappointed in this stove.
It's a cold air intake. It's to be hooked to the outside of building.
I think if this paticular stove was much larger and took 24 inch logs . It would be my perfect wood stove.
Automatic? No thanks. Everyone knows anything automated means more problematic. Is this part of the EPA bs?
There’s a saying, if it isn’t broken then don’t try to fix it. Old stove designs worked perfectly.
I bet you drive an electric Car !!!
