I just found this forum and I'm looking for help. My wife and I (& seven biological children) recently bought a 105 year old, 3-story (about 3,100 square foot) farmhouse that I need to find a way to efficiently heat. My original plan was for an outdoor wood boiler along with a propane backup furnace and my wife would like a wood burning cookstove in the kitchen. Someone mentioned a rocket mass heater, so I started researching and like what I see. I'm brand new to the concept and need guidance.
A little more about me: I'm an enlisted National Guard soldier with just over 18 years of service. I work as a Mil-tec mechanic (pays the bills) and pastor a small church in west-central Wisconsin (my passion). I love the outdoors and being as prepared as possible. I'm a hard working, patriotic, mostly self-sufficient American who does not hesitate to help others I know have a need that I can meet.
