Frankly, if you would have to pay current prices for firewood, you almost certainly should not; oil is cheaper. On the other hand, if you have an available supply of wood, the means to cut and haul if, an adequate chimney, and a satisfactory oil- fired forced air furnace for stQndby, then an add-on wood furnace attached to your oil furnace would be a wise investment, es- pecially now that it qualifies for an "off -oil" rebate. Ask us about the SUREFIRE 201A add- on. It only costs a little more to go first class.
