High Efficiency Wood Stoves?
Travis asked:
Does anyone know about how much less wood a high efficiency wood stove burns vs a conventional stove? Such as an older cast iron stove.

i found this info.
ReVision Energy’s wood and pellet boilers burn at 80 to 85% efficiency through a process called ‘wood gasification.’ These wood and pellet gasifying boilers emit no visible smoke because the combustion temperatures reach 1800+ degrees Fahrenheit. Smoky outdoor wood boilers, on the other hand, burn at 50-60% efficiency, and are coming under state restrictions due to their polluting emissions. It is also worth noting that typical older model wood stoves burn wood at between 50-60% efficiency, requiring much more wood to produce the equivalent BTUs from a wood boiler.
For hrs so bank it took logs at night to burn for hrs now have new woodsman brick lined can hold heat with log for hrs so bank it with log for hrs now have new woodsman.
