A boiler is a pretty complex expensive upgrade unless you are trying to accomplish more than just replacing the furnace. Either way you go,...
Looks like a major improvement. If that doesn't get you where you need to be, I use double wall pipe with two 45s at the ceiling to achieve the...
Not use them
Sounds like a perfect plan for anyone that heats their home exclusively with delivered 48" diameter logs
The Real Truth seems as fuzzy as ever after reading this thread. Is porting simply the next step after you get to the 50/70/90 saw mix you are...
