permaculture

[Shane Perry <rymnel@gmail.com>]

They're a bit pricey, but Masonry stoves are designed to burn one 
intense fire a day and hold the heat.  I have heard, though, that you 
must make sure that you are getting a well designed and put together 
stove.  I know of a guy that spent a good deal of money on his and was 
disappointed because of the contractor that he used.  I believe they 
work best in smallish dwellings.  Check out this link for more info.
