Some people do not consider a wood stove "green". But as I have 20 acres and my wife's family has 320+ acres adjoining ours wood is plentiful and free. All it takes is the physical activity to cut, split and stack. Much better than a gym membership.
At my last house burning wood lowered my propane use by over 70%. Since this new house has a "mother-in-law" addition, that my mother-in-law and her son live in(at 51 I have a 7 year old brother in law), I probably won't get near that savings.
Yesterday I had a new stove installed. It is a Lopi Liberty. We had a Lopi at our old house and I was very satisfied with it. It is keeping our side at 70F quite easily on a fairly low burn. Since it is going to be close to -30F next two nights I think I got it just in time.
Here it is in action.
Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts
"God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.
