Outdoor
wood-burning furnaces are a great idea for many reasons.
They keep your home
comfortable with the kind of warm, cozy heat that only wood can provide. And by
burning wood instead of fuels, you are being friendlier to the environment. Wood
is also a renewable resource, whereas fuel is not.

As the demand for
fuel grows and the supply dwindles, fuel price hikes like we have experienced
over the past year will become commonplace. By heating your home with wood, you
can avoid these peaks in heating costs and may be able to do away with your
heating bill altogether if you burn wood from your own property.
Outside wood
burners are also safer and cleaner than burning wood indoors. There is no smoke,
ashes, odors or soot buildup and the chance of catching your home on fire with
this type of heat is virtually nonexistent.

The only drawback
of the outdoor furnace is that you have to go outside to load the furnace with
wood and to perform routine cleaning and maintenance. But the ability of the
furnace to burn whole logs instead of split lumber means that you will not have
to see to your heating system very often. There will be no running outside in
the middle of the night to add more fuel to the fire. And if you are like many,
the money that you save will more than make up for this inconvenience.
