I've heated with wood since 1977 and nothing warms you like a properly installed wood stove. In fact, I've had both of mine going since yesterday as the temps dropped into the 40'sF during the day yesterday, and there's hard frost out there right now from the night. It's to be 40's during the day today and even colder, into the upper 20's tonight. So the stove will be going for a while...
