I used to heat with wood but quit some ten years ago. The cost of propane got to where I figured my time using wood was worth more doing other things.
The issue I have with wood heat is many outdoor wood stoves. They have short flues and they really smoke when they are first filled. In some of the small little towns/villages I see guys fill their stove and the blower kicks in an you can't see the neighbor's house because of the smoke pouring out of the stove.
IF one of these was next to my house I would have to complain too. MY wife's health problems also involve breathing issues caused by smoke and dust. So I am all for guys heating with wood as long as they are not smoking their neighbors out.
I was skeptical of the catalytic converters in the new stoves flues. My son bought a new stove last year. It is way more efficient than the same brand it replaced. The designers had to make the stove more efficient to reduce emissions to where the catalytic converter would work. The spin off is thee stove produces more heat on less wood.
