Looking for some help with the following.
1. Request
Situation: Requesting help with insuring a
rocket mass heater in Wisconsin.
Background: I believe in the efficiencies of a
rocket mass heater and would like to build one myself. However, I also recognize that my home represents a significant investment. I hold the title free and clear to my home so getting the bank to approve is not an issue.
Request: I am questioning if anyone has successfully insured their home with a
RMH in the state of Wisconsin or elsewhere? If so, could you please give me your agents contact information? I would also be interested to know if there are any home insurance agents on here that could help me in my endeavor?
2. Question
Situation: Basement
RMH question/concerns.
Background: It has been a while since I have been on permies and remember there being some discussion about problems with placing a RMH in ones basement. I would like to place the unit in my basement. The Chimney is roughly 25ft from ground level with a short horizontal (10 ft or less) basement run and the floor to ceiling it is roughly 8 ft distance in the basement. I currently have a
wood stove installed and an air intake from outdoors a couple feet from the stove(and vertically about 7 ft high).
Request: What concerns/problems would I encounter with a basement RMH setup and what are the solutions?
