Heating with wood advances boost efficiency and style
Wood stove technology today offers 25 to 33 percent less fuel use, larger fireboxes, and near zero emissions. Catalytic and non catalytic designs reduce pollutants, while airwash keeps the glass clear. Options include top or front loading, ash pans, materials from cast iron to soapstone, and decorative finishes from gold plating to etched glass.
Get the most from heating dollars
Energy audit tips include checking wall insulation by exposing switch plates, piercing exterior walls if needed, and sealing foundation areas. Insulating foundations, sill plates, and ceilings improves warmth. Maintain 68 F day and 60 F night, use a clock thermostat, keep radiators clear, service gas heaters every 2-3 years, and clean furnace filters monthly in heating season.
