so how much wood have you used so far

[Christopix]

We have burned a little over a cord since middle of September. WAY down from last years debacle with wet wood in our old All-Nighter! Heating about 1500 sq feet. We also have an ideal house footprint set up for passive solar. If there is ANY sunlight from a cloudless day, no matter the temperature, our south facing living room with huge picture window heats the place up to 78-80 degrees if we let it.

I can't believe the difference using an EPA stove. The amount of wood we are using is much much less. I'm not even that good at using the Endeavor yet either.

A bit over a full cord I think.

 

[Soundchasm]

1.6 cords with two stoves.

 

[Badger]

About 1 1/2 cord so far. I'm interested to see how much I need as this is my first full year.

I think we are at about 1.75 cord, 3600 sqft, zc fireplace on main, and super 27 in the basement. I run the basement stove when lows are forecast in the teens or lower. So far temps have been below average in Missouri for October, November, and December.

 

[xtrordinair]

heating around 2000 square foot of well insulated area .I have went through little over a rick so far .Its kept my home around 75 degrees and i am loving it

We're up to ~1.5 cords here in Ottawa since Nov 1. Seems like we started a little early this year - must have been a cold Nov this year. We're heating about 1800 sqft bungalow with a Regency I3100.

 

[Gboutdoors]

Just about a cord since last week of Oct. Put up 6 cord for this year and at this rate with the new stove we will have at least 1 cord left over for next year if not more.

Gee, you guys make me feel bad! I'm burning in a wood furnace, but we've used around 2.5 cords heating since the end of September. Our house is an old 2500 sqft Victorian. I know our usage is down since the addition. We don't have a furnace ( needs a 30.00 part) so it's 100% wood heat. We average 74-75 most of the winter.

 

[mepellet]

Maybe a half a cord at most here. Have used a bit over a ton of pellets as well though.

 

[toddnic]

Just over 1 cord so far. We have been burning since mid-October but due to the weather we have not been constantly burning until recently. I figure that we will burn between 3 and 4 cords this season.

 

[Ashful]

3.5 cords since late October. Would be more, but we decided earlier this month to just burn one stove during the work week, until I get my wood quality issues ironed out.

 

[nola mike]

Probably about 1/4 cord so far, maybe a touch more with the liberty bricks. Heating 2k square feet to 68', fighting average temps of 40's/day, low Thirty's/night! Though we've had actually quite a few low 20's nights already...

 

[SolarBrian]

~1 ton of Envi Blocks for 1750 sq ft (Although I'm only heating about 2/3rds of it with the wood insert, still relying on oil for keeping the upstairs at temp).

A couple weeks ago I'd say I was way ahead of normal usage with the cold November and early December, but the past weeks or so has been warmer.

 

[Oregon aloha]

Just over a cord of Doug fir so far burning 24/7. It's been colder for us this year with one cold spell in the single digits. Would have easily burned 2+ cords in the old smoke dragon thus far.

 

[blueguy]

Just shy of 1.5 cord so far this year. Been burning since end-Oct.

 

[UncleJoe]

A little shy of 2 cord since mid-October.

 

[Ubookz]

I burn one full stove, plus 2-4 splits in a day, let it burn out and reload in the am, house temp. about 58 deg. A load burns down over 6-7 hours. I checked my wood use over 10 days which is .12 cord, so for 30 days=.36 cord/month, the milder months burning less. This is heating a single level about 1000sq.' with fir+lodgepole. maybe used 1.5 cord

 

[legrandice]

We have burned about 1.3 cords so far for 1900 sq/ft.

 

[Warm_in_NH]

Just under a full cord since end of Oct. Heating about 1000 Sq ft of 1/2 tight 1/2 drafty house. Keeping it mid 70 s.
First year w a stove, less than ideal wood, and a learning curve.

 

[ClanCameron]

It's been cold, and we're heading into another Arctic Dunk Tank (says Paul Douglas, meteorologist), and we haven't seen January yet. Burned a solid full cord (methinks) since late October to heat 2,700 sf at about 72 room temp. I'm not shy about hitting the thermostat for an LP gas call when I first get home after eleven hours away, and keep the gas going a good hour before the stove is up to temp and putting out the heat to both floors again. LP prepay was pretty cheap this year - I use the strengths of all the fuel types I can to make life sweet!

 

[bluedogz]

A little under 2 cords of hickory, cherry, and BL since October or so. Trying for 24/7 and almost there...

 

[Dave K]

Almost 2 cord. I switched stoves a little over a week ago from an old smoke dragon to an NC30 and my wood usage is going way way down.

I plan on upgrading to the NC30 next year. Hope my wood consumption goes down

 

[HotCoals]

One cord. No backup was used,never below 65. mostly 72-75 in adjoining rooms.

 

[bryankloos]

I've burned about 1.25 cord (and 66 gallons of oil) since mid November heating 3100 sqft.
This is my first year burning wood and first year in the house. The layout isn't perfect but I've used fans to help move the heat.
Hope to keep the oil below 300 gals total with burning about 3 cords??? TBD.
