Outdoor Burn area - notice - about 500 stoves burning and blue sky - no smoke. I'll take some better ones later which show more chimneys.....you guys might want to plant these at the anti-hearth forum.

3 Pics

One a stainless pool heater - wood burning, which is EPA approved......as much as 250,000 BTU, it would also heat up a hot tub in a hurry!

The second is a corn/biomass furnace which can be rolled from place to place! Great for the shop, etc - or even for working outdoors and having a source of warmth.

The other is prototype pellet stove put together by an inventor who had previously bought a pellet stove - and then threw it out of the house due to dust, etc.

This unit has no convection fans, so no noise! It also has a unique burning system. There is a combustion fan, but it is located on the chimney stack outside (as I said, this is a prototype!).
