I heated with wood for 5 years. Had a nice stove on the first floor and a combination oil/wood furnace in the basement which has subsequently been outlawed. The furnace used the same combustion chamber for wood and oil. When the t-stat called for heat the furnace would come on and ignite the wood.

The living room was floor to ceiling glass on two walls. It was fun playing with the kids in our pj’s during a raging blizzard. Where I live blizzard is not an overstatement, either.

I started getting nervous at night knowing there was a fire in the house, though.

I miss the wood heat, don’t miss the wood fire, or the work.
