Before there was electric or natural gas heating, there was wood heat. Since the dawn of man we've used fires and wood heat to not only keep us warm but also cook our food. There's something very elemental and soothing about a roaring fire...
There are millions of wood stoves in operation across the US and another million + being sold every year. With home heating costs through the roof it's a great way to cut down on your costs. Being fairly new to wood heat though, I was SHOCKED at the lack of information on the internet, particularly relating to wood types and firewood. Buying and installing a wood stove is the EASY part, but there is no one firewood information source (that I've found). For example, which firewood types should you burn, which create more heat, which are readily available in your locale, where do you buy firewood, how do you split firewood, etc. Hopefully this blog resource with help!
