Heating with Wood
Masonry contractors build Masonry heaters that are environmentally friendly yet efficient heating systems and compared to "mainstream" options such as central heating systems, they put a genuinely unique experience on the table.
As anyone who owned such a product can confirm, the taste of fresh bakeware from a wood-burning oven speaks for itself and "competitors" such as electric stoves are left far behind. The same way, the radiant heat produced by a masonry heater is unmatched and central air systems can simply not compete on the same level.
Why Choose Masonry Heaters?
Above everything else, masonry brings people together and there's a reason why people call masonry stoves "heart of the home" in Finland or "soul of the home" in Russia. Families used to spend quality time together around masonry fireplaces, cook their food through masonry stoves and the list could go on and on.
Leaving all sentimental aspects aside, let's refer to statistics for a moment. The various wood burning options we have at our disposal can supplement and even replace gas or oil: woodstoves, the Rumford fireplace or masonry heaters.
The Economic and Environmental Fundamentals behind Wood Burning Options
In a world under the pressure of upcoming energy problems, wood will always represent a safety net. Simply put, research specialists from various countries such as Canada have made it clear that if you're interested in low heating costs, wood represents a better option than propane, electricity or natural gas.
Even more so, it deserves its place as a part of your strategy as an environmentally friendly homeowner due to the fact that it represents an excellent fit for solar passive design houses. There are almost no smoke/wood emissions to worry about and being a renewable source of energy, wood does not contribute to the greenhouse effect.
As always make sure your chimney does not need any chimney repairs before the wood burning season.
