Hi everyone!
For the past 8 years we have been heating our 2600 sq ft. home with a wood/coal boiler, fuel oil backup. Until Valentines day this was working ok right up until we had a bad chimney fire. We have decided that we will be replacing that system, relocating it closer to the chimney, but now very confused about the EPA standards and what is allowed to be inside. Originally looking at the Wood Gun but spending 20k - 25k is quite a bit over what we wanted to spend. We love burning wood however it would take me 20 yrs or more to recoup that expense. Are there any affordable indoor wood boilers that pass the EPA guidelines? EKO? Our other option is to look at giving up wood all together and go with fuel oil or propane. Any insight on systems that we can install inside would be greatly appreciated. Outdoor burner is not an option.
