Year End Survey

Ok, This should be fun. I would like to know how much wood you burn through in a year. Now to get this even close to work with all the variable lets have a few rules.
1. Must be a boiler.
2. Must be your only source of heat. So if you have a fire place or fossil boiler helping out once in awhile convert your number to if you never used them.
3. Does not matter what kind of wood you are using. Takes about the same effort to cut, split, stack, carry, and finally burn whether it is oak or maple or pine.
4. Must burn for a 6 month season. So you southerners make a monthly average and add to it. Those of you burning all year, eliminate the summer months.
5. Lets all work in the same unit of measurement. A CHORD. 4' X 4' X 8'.
Did I miss anything?
List your location, square footage heated, DHW (yes or no), and Chords of wood

I am still using that nasty OWB and can't wait untill next year to upgrade.
So here goes. Michigan, 2700sq.ft., DHW, 12 Chord

Lots of responses so far. Great job guys. Keep them coming. The more input the better.
There definitely are a lot of variables in this heating with wood. But I think that is some of the reason we are doing it. Nothing like a challenge on how to make your car go faster, your golf ball go further, and your boiler burn longer and hotter. Only with this "hobby" hope fully we are spending less $$$ in the end.

I do still believe there is a bit of information cleaned from this thread even with all the variables. Lets face it cutting, splitting, stacking, and burning is a lot of work. There is a threshold or a magic number where on one side we think this is to much work and not worth it and the other side were we are satisfied with the benefit/work ratio. It appears so far I burn more wood than most and I know I am tired of it and am looking for ways to improve with efficiency. I think you can begin to draw an average of wood consumption for a year from this thread. Absolutely everyone's set up is different. But it gives us an idea of how we are doing.

From this unscientific pole I can take hope in the fact that there are ways to improve and become more efficient. Keep in mind I am new to this forum. We all travel in our own circles and mine never crossed gassification boilers until I found this forum. I like the fact if I can cut my wood consumption in half at $1000.00 a year right now that would be sweet. I would love to only spend $500.00 on wood next year and love it even better to be able to cut the wood and not go through it so fast and be able to stock it up for the following years.

If I didn't burn I would go through 1700 gal. of propane a year. At $2.00 a gallon I am saving some serous change. But we all want to save more and be able to do what we want with our money.

I better stop there or I may fall into the health care issue talking about my money and spending it how I want too. That's a can a worms for another thread. (Moderator might want to remove this line to keep all the Libertarians from hijacking thread. Even though that may be what we need. Darn, there I go again.)
