This wood stove thermometer attaches easily using a strong magnet to a stovetop or stovepipe. With this thermometer, it's easy to tell if the stove is burning too hot or too cold.
Where do you set the thermometer on a wood stove insert? On top of the stove or on the side?
1 Answer
Although either location will give slightly different readings, and interpreting them will take some getting used to, stove thermometers are typically placed 1-2 feet above the stove directly on the single wall stove pipe. Alternatively, they can be placed directly on the stove top.
Is this product able to be used on a wood burning fireplace insert? Where is the best place to put it?
1 Answer
Wood burning inserts are almost identical to their wood stove counterparts in construction. As such, this thermometer could be placed on the top surface of a wood insert.
We like knowing the temperature range of the fire in the wood stove.

Seems to work but not sure of accuracy
Works as described. However not sure of accuracy. I bought this brand and Chimgard to compare the two. Chimgard gets stuck at 250-300 deg and need some assistance getting past that but then both have a temp disparity of about 50 degrees. But would suggest having 2 thermometers. I had been burning too hot of a fire.

Strength in numbers.
Love my two fans! What a great idea! Should be helpful if the power goes out.

Basic and Functional
It doesn't get much more simple than this. Unpack it and stick it on the stove. It comes with a hole in the center and a small sheet metal screw so you can attach it to the stovepipe if the magnet isn't strong enough or you have stainless pipe. I like the color coding for proper temperature ranges.
simple

Seems to be an Accurate Sovepipe Thermometer
Used in conjunction with a stove TOP thermometer - both are reading about the same temperature so I assume it is accurate!

Helpful Product
This thermometer has really been helpful in running my woodstove at the optimum level. Now I know when I'm running it too low and will have creosote build up, which has been a problem in the past.
