Posted - Oct 01 2012 : 04:52:39 AMWe have a wood burning stove and a corn/wood pellet burner. They are at opposite ends of the house for heat.
I agree - dusty and dirty, but still cheaper than using electric baseboard heat - $600-900/month. We have the highest electric in our county, and when we moved in these baseboard heaters were installed the day prior. The house had no furnace or heating system in it other than the wood burning stove.

Posted - Sep 30 2012 : 11:05:08 AMWe haven't checked with our supplier yet for this year's prices but we were already paying the price which is higher for you this year. I'm hoping that we do not have an increase, especially since I'm no longer employed! Perhaps I'll call them tomorrow and check on it. CJ
