Description

This mailing list is for those who heat with wood or are interested in learning more about efficient, clean home heating with natural firewood.
We share and discuss all aspects of home heating with wood including equipment, joys, problems, safety, performance, environmental consequences, firing techniques, and firewood production. We encourage lively discussions which can help us all.
The list is a part of "The Wood Heat Organization" (homepage: www.woodheat.org) a non profit volunteer group dedicated to assisting public awareness and improvement in renewable, responsible home heating with wood.
