Andy asked:
I have a Jotul 8 wood stove and am upgrading to a newer stove. Can I use the older one as the heat source for an outdoor wood fired sauna?
If so, can anyone direct me to a good source for plans for building the outdoor sauna? Thanks.

Is a wood stove an effective way to lower energy bills?

Dixie asked:
My husband and I have a free and unlimited source of firewood, but we don’t have a fireplace. Wood stoves tend to be expensive, and I just wondered if anyone knew if it would be worth it to get one in the long run? What kind do you have and how much do you save monthly using it?

I need side and rear clearance for a 15 year old wood stove. The 2×4 walls are covered with cement board and ceramic tiles. Behind that is a foundation wall.

How efficient is the average wood stove?

Jessica H asked:
There is a fireplace in my house that in the past we’ve used as a supplement to an oil furnace. This year, we are having a wood stove put in and hope to solely use this for heat. I am just curious, how efficient is a wood stove? I found through some Google searches that a fireplace has an average efficiency of 15%. Just curious and would appreciate any knowledge on the subject.
