There is a place in my town that sells ton of Eco bricks for $265 I think that it's a lot compared to $3.26 a gallon of oil right now. I get my wood free so I am a but biased.
At $265 my old self would be laying them in and letting the saws rest.
I totally agree with you, the way I used to calculate was that 100 gal of oil = a cord of wood. It's just there is much less work with oil and I can turn the thermostat up or down whenever I want. I just think that bricks are bit pricey overall to burn them exclusively. But all that said I will get a ton of them to supplement some of my free wood.
Really? Nothing beats burning real wood. But yes it is a big convenience, going price of a cord of wood here in ct is $200, split, delivered, not seasoned, so for extra $65 you are getting a premium "wood", looking at them from this perspective maybe bricks are not that pricey after all. And those stove manufacturers don't want us to burn them.I was thinking almost the same. Should I ever not be able to process my own wood I don't think I would bother with buying split wood but go directly to burning the bricks. No stacking at least 2 times, less mess, no bugs, less ashes, less creosote, no need to go outside in the cold... Maybe I should switch right now?!![]()
