We had a woodchuck forced air in Missouri back in the early 80's, hooked into the existing duct work with a thermostat. It worked good but the house was only around 700 sq ft. Wood can be a mess though and then you still have to cut, split, load, stack, unload, drag it in, stoke the fire, clean up dust, ash, dirt. Since we have lived here we put in a countryside pellet/corn stove and just love it. 2100 sq ft and I use fans to move the heat around. In the SW corner of the house sits the stove in the LR it'll be 74 degrees, and three door openings later it'll be 68 degrees in the back BR,only use one fan to push it back there. We just bought pellets for 170$ton, and it will take 2 to 2.5 tons for the winter. Was using corn but price is too high now. we are on propane as well and haven't used any for three years now. rest of the house is electric. go for the pellets, easy to handle(come in 50 pd bags), easy to clean up(once a week to clean out the ash bin), runs all the time(unless it gets above 55 dgrs outdrs). good luck, Kent

After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
