Hello All,
I bought a house in October and since then have had a steep learning curve with wood fuels.
The house I bought came with a Harman Accentra pellet stove in the family room and a Lange wood stove in the unfinished basement. House is 2500 SQ ft, with only 1 stairway leading to the 2nd floor. I have since learned that cheap pellets are cheap for a reason and after using the Lange in the basement, I would like a wood furnace. I cut air registers in the floors on the first floor thinking that I could use radiant heat that way ( to no avail).
I am new to the forum and looking for insight into how to make wood burning my main source of heat. I live in northern Connecticut and while its pretty cold currently, I would like to help my budget out.
I'm really excited to find this forum, from reading it the last month before joining I can tell there is a lot of wisdom and this place is a tremendous resource.
Thanks in advance
