i don't have one myself, but I have several friends with the Hardy units that really like them. In addition to the heat they can be set up to provide the hot water. 2 shortcomings I have heard about them is they take about 3 times as much wood as a wood stove inside the house, though they do provide more even heat, plus the hot water, and the liquid they circulate is water, so if you are gone for an extended period in cold weather they will freeze up inside the heater unless someone fires it for you.
If you are not part of the solution,
you are part of the problem!!!

You can use antifreeze in it if freezeup is a problem. In the house I am building in the country I have a Thermo Control wood burning stove. It heats water that I circulate through radiators and copper base board. I have the system filled with 50 50 water and anitfreeze. Its been that way through a number of winters and no problem. The outside wood furnaces that i have looked at all say not to use car antifreeze. I don't know why when theis has the same ingrediants.
