Greenwood Greenwood 100 — 

We bought this wood furnace on  the advice of our designer as being "efficient". EPA approval sounded great. Well if you think it's efficient to have to load the furnace every 3 hours when it's cold ( and we live in mid-hudson NY- Not alaska), and if you think it's efficient to burn 4 times the amount of wood you'd normally use, and if you think it's efficient to have to put the thermostat up to 90 in order that the boiler doesn't blow up in more mild weather and have to leave the windows open not to faint, then maybe you'll like it. I feel like making a class action suit and would love to join with others who feel duped and cheated! We spent $8500 on the actual unit, not to mention much more than that on getting the plumbing and settings right to work with it. We're going to have to get another furnace before next winter as it never got our main living area above 64 when it was really cold. Supposedly if you have a hot tub or swimming pool to heat to use as a  "heat dump" it works better; but if you just have a regular home, forget it!!!
