I heat w wood and have oil backup in part (bath and bedrooms clustered
in center w hot water/baseboard that can be oil fired for anti-freeze.)
We cut our own wood and get chops from tree services we just have to
split. I have splitter to save my back.
We also bundle deadfall sticks into firebundles.
Wood stove in one fireplace. Old cast iron Glacier Bay w circulatory
blower added (also learned stonework to extend chimney to install.)
Other fireplace has glass front and hearth heat exchanger.
