An outside boiler may be the safest way, but the investment and the amount of wood required to feed those beasts isn't worth it.
A man built a new house. A guy with a small HVAC business installed electric heat and AC in house. The man who built the house invested over $10,000 in an outside boiler. I had to figure out how to make the fan circulate the air without the electric heat coming on so the heat from boiler could heat house. At the same time if he wasn't home, the electric heat would keep house warm. The electric furnace was hi tech. I had to scratch my head to figure out to make it work.
I don't like working hard to heat my house. When I did a complete remodel on my house I installed Anderson casement windows. My exterior walls have an R19 attic R50.
I installed electric baseboard heat in every room. My total electric cost for 2000+ ft house is on a fixed bill $135/mo for 12 mo. $1620/year Total cost. My fixed bill is based on last years electric usage.
I would invest in INSULATION, INSULATION AND MORE INSULATION. If I lived in the North East, which seems to get blasted all the time, I would consider having a Natural Gas backup vented heater that doesn't require electricity.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
