those things burn for DAYS before you have to re-load - they will burn green wood too

 

What do you mean, like fresh wood? or pine?

 

yup fresh non seasoned wood

whereas a wood stove needs at least 1 year seasoned (dried) wood to preform best and give the most heat

i am still thinking about adding one of these units in the next few years.. the less oil i use the better

 

gimme one those pallet burners

 

that's about the size you'll need

 

The outdoor furnaces are great. Hicks in the boonies of Upstate NY love them as I see thousands when I drive through there to go hunting each year.

 

pallets are a pain the a$$ to move though, big bulky and very little wood in em.
not to mention lotso nails in the ashes.

 

ya but they are FREE and you don't need to cut / split / stack logs

 

Classic NE thread start with a car chase and end up with wood

 

Careful about buying one of those ouotside boilers. Towns are banninig them pretty regularly. Neighbors complain about the smoke.
