We have an outdoor woodburner. It burns only wood (which, at the moment, we get for free from FIL's woods) and the burning wood heats a bladder filled with water. The water runs underground and into our basement where it goes into a radiator looking thing. The fans (from the original furnace) blow over this radiator thing and heat the house. Our only gas expense is for our water heater.
Electric is another matter and it's going up too. :(

Gale, Good for you! Did you do this system yourself? Sounds like a great way to beat the high fuel cost. It would be great to see a pic of the system :thumbup:

We bought it and it was pretty expensive. It takes a few years to pay for itself (I think it was 7.5K? including installation-dh and his dad did some of the installation work). You can see more about ours here:

there are other brands too.

Anyone? 24. 24. 24. Wrong. The cases of diet coke went up a dollar and now a case appears to be 20. That flew all over me!
