If you live on a large rural lot, an outdoor wood/corn furnace may be the solution to the problem of the rising cost of oil and gas. This type of furnace heats water from wood or corn and converts it into heat for your house, shop, pool, hot tub or domestic hot water. Located up to 500 feet from your house, the furnace pumps heated water through an underground pipe to a heat exchanger in your basement. These furnaces are compatible with all conventional heating systems, e.g. forced air, radiant floor, or radiant baseboard applications. Fuel efficiency is rated in the 80% range. The manufacturer claims that fuel bill savings of up to 50% are achievable as compared to fossil fuels.
Some models, for example the Bioadvantage furnace sold by Central Boiler, burn readily available, environmentally-friendly shelled corn or wood pellets, yet can be converted quickly to burn regular firewood if required. http://www.bioadvantage.com/
Sequoyah Paradise, a manufacturer of outdoor wood furnaces has developed a new outdoor wood furnace that uses downdraft gasification to make the furnace much more efficient, and produce less emissions, enabling it to pass the test for new EPA Owhh emission levels.

What I really like about these furnaces is that you have superior indoor air quality and no mess, compared to standard wood stoves located inside the home.
