How long does a 40 lb. bag last?
• It depends on the temperature and setting (high, med, or low) the stove is set on and how long it runs. The Castille model in the showroom is turned on at 8:00 A.M. on high for 1 hour, at 9:00 it gets turned to low and runs that way for the rest of the day until it is shut off around 3:30 to 4:00 P.M. It goes through a full bag in about 3 1/2 days. The average customer in this area reported last winter (2007-2008) a usage between a half-ton to a ton for the whole season.
