Stovax 7 inset final polish.

I don''t know is it says anywhere about which way to lay logs in a stove but with this model, it pays to lay logs across the stove with the thickest at the front. This must slow the burn and get the most heat out of the wood. Certainly worth a try but not as easy as just putting it in front to back.

Stove expert replied: In most stoves the wood burns best when placed side to side rather than back to front.
