Heating Your Home Efficiently with Wood |
 | ||||||||||||
| If you are reading this information, odds are that you are concerned about the environment. Are you looking for ways to become more environmentally friendly, while saving money in the process? A wood heating system is a good choice for reliable heat and a clean environment! Unlike a system that relies on fossil fuels, a wood system is a renewable resource. Wood heating systems results in no net carbon dioxide increase because new trees replace the ones used as fuel. Dust to dust, as it's said! |

A well made outdoor furnace is the most efficient way to burn wood and produces lower emissions than a camp fire! With the addition of a forced air blower, boilers reach higher temperatures and higher efficiencies, which means your home stays warm with less fuel! | ||||||||||||
| You've put a lot of time and money into your home. It’s where your family spends their time, it’s where you relax. You may be thinking, “Firewood is dirty and moldy, why would I want that around my home?” When wood is burned indoors it creates smoke, ash and sometimes a not very pleasant smell. However, when burning outdoors, you avoid all those problems because you don’t bring the firewood or the fire inside! This means no fire hazards from your heating system, no worries about carbon monoxide, and no worries about pilot lights! |

How much do you spend heating your home? Would you like to spend less? Often, companies who use pallets will sell (very cheap!) broken pallets and sometimes, they give them away so they don't have to pay for disposal! Wood is easy to come by! | ||||||||||||

Did
you know that all wood, regardless of species, has about the same
energy content per pound? The different species vary only
in density.
