What they dont' talk about is that an oil or gas boiler/furnace will run
at
85% efficiency or better. A corn, wood, or wood pellet will run at much
lower efficiency. So these experts need to factor that into the
calculation.
The fuel is cheap but most of it goes up the chimmney.
No they don't. Corn stoves are not like normal wood stoves. Most burn at
around 85% efficiency.
How do they burn at such a high efficiency, Dave? I've never looked into
those things.
