text: I looked for two years at outdoor wood furnaces before choosing the Heatmor furnace and I am extremely please with my choice. For the past seven years I was heating my house with an indoor wood/oil furnace. I was spending a lot of time hauling wood into the house, tending the fire and cleaning up the dirt from the wood. There was always a faint odor of smoke in the house and the house was either too hot or too cold (especially around 3:00 AM in the morning when the fire went out). With the Heatmor outdoor furnace I now tend to the fire approximately every twelve hours. I no longer need to worry about hauling wood or making a dirty mess in the house. The heat in my house is now controllable with my thermostat and I no longer have a house that is either too hot or too cold. From a safety standpoint the fire is now outside of my house. I feel a lot safer knowing that there is no fire inside my house when I’m away from home or sleeping. As far as I am concerned if you heat your house with wood the best way to do this is with an outdoor furnace and I would highly recommend the Heatmor outdoor furnace.
