I'm currently burning a Harman TL300 24/7 and it frankly isn't built like I think it should be, not to mention it barely heats my 2300 sq. ft house while burning 1.25 face cords per week of oak, hard maple and beech. Twice now it wouldn't open the back damper when lifting the lid and had to have the gears adjusted, poor design IMHO. Now today, it won't even allow the lid to open and I can't seem to find what is locked up. I have a natural gas HWBB set up now, but I want to heat with wood to save myself some money. Wood is free for me. What would you guys recommend? An indoor boiler or another wood stove? Looking to spend less than 5K, so an outdoor boiler, although probably ideal, is out of the question. What brands and models do you guys use with success?
Thanks for any help!
