Do you turn your permanent icehouse furnace on when you hit the lake?

    Was wondering how many people turn their icehouse’s (Legend, Yetti, Ice Castle, etc) furnace/heat on once they hit the lake to start the warming process before they park it.

    I’ve heard it wasn’t advised but I’ve also heard that a lot of people do it.

    I guess I’ve never done it as it can cause issues with sooting in the furnace fire chamber. Seems like furnaces have enough issues without adding another.

    If I’m going to a close lake or moving between lakes I light mine at home or leave it running between lakes. Done it for years with zero problems.

    If it is extremely cold I will turn it on at access if I remember and drive slow otherwise turn on after I get to my spot.
