The Osburn is a large wood-burning stove that includes a blower

When compared to other models it is easy to see why the Osburn 3500 has so many great reviews
The Osburn 3500 wood-burning insert is backed by a limited lifetime warranty and has a 71 percent efficiency rating. It is recommended to use dry cordwood logs 16 inches in length in order for the unit to burn most efficiently, however when you need to reach the unit's maximum heating output the unit can accommodate a maximum log length of 22 inches.
It is important to use properly dried and cured split firewood as your primary wood fuel. Dry cordwood with a moisture content between 15% and 20% will allow the insert to produce its highest possible efficiency. Good firewood has been cut to the correct length for the insert, split into a range of sizes and
stacked in an open area until its moisture content is down to 15% to 20%.
Firewood that is not dry enough to burn is the cause of most complaints about wood inserts. Continually burning green or unseasoned wood will cause issues with your fire and your wood stove system. When you burn green or unseasoned wood your fire will produce more creosote which is a harmful byproduct that can clog up your venting system and will make your fires burn dirtier which will require more frequent cleanings. Also burning wood with too high of a moisture content will cause performance issues including a lack of heat to be produced from your unit. This is why it is always a good idea to use proper dry cordwood in your unit.
The Osburn 3500 unit features an air wash system to help keep the door clean
One of the most amazing features of the Osburn 3500 wood stove insert is the air wash system. The air wash system is a specific design feature that uses a specially placed vent or vents to draw in cool air from the room; the air is then heated and ducted to 'wash' over the inside of the glass. This feature helps to keep the glass clean for longer, allowing you to enjoy the glow and flames as your fire burns.
