An outdoor wood furnace is a wood burning furnace that sits outdoors - keeping the mess, smoke and bugs outside. The furnace, looks much like a small utility building. It is a wood fired, water-jacketed stove.
The hot water is circulated through underground pipes to the inside of the house, where they are hooked to a heat exchanger in the majority of cases. It is also directly plumbed to the hot water heater, eliminating the need for a $200 side-arm heat exchanger for that purpose. It can also be tied in with an existing Hydronic floor heating system or boiler.
Heating with an outdoor wood furnace has never been easier. Instead of moving the wood and corresponding mess and bugs indoors, the wood burning furnace is outdoors - next to the wood.

Load it once at night and once in the morning and you're done! Don't believe the stories about wood burning 96 hours! See the article here
Indoor air pollution is cut to zero by moving the fire and smoke outside, which is vital for people with Asthma, kids and the elderly. However everyone can benefit from not breathing all that smoke and particulates! Your walls and furniture will stay smoke-free and cleaner too.
