Wood stove and coal furnace heating
Most people want free home heating until they see what it takes to get free home heating.
Over this summer I installed my coal furnace and a wood stove.
The coal furnace out in the garage and the wood stove in where my fire place is on the opposite end of the house.
The most common types of wood in this part of new Mexico are pallets, scrap lumber and elm.
I figure the wood stove and coal furnace will save up to 2 mega watt hours on my power bill per month.
If it's a real cold winter they could pay for them selves this winter if I don't run out of wood.
If I can find a supply of coal then I will be all set.
