We almost made it to December without turning on the furnace in our house. But on November 30th, the seasons finally caught up with us, and we have been having consistent lows in the singe digits and highs below freezing since.
That's more than our wood stove can keep up with, unless someone was here to keep it running full-blast 24/7. Thanks, but I'm not going to get up in the middle of the night to stoke the fire. We're managing to keep quite comfortable with relatively minimal furnace use. I've been keeping the stove running as long as as hot as practical, and also turning up the heat in our TV room, which also keeps the kitchen warm. We close the doors to the kitchen, and have a warm haven in those two rooms. That's practical in our house because the TV room was an addition on to the house and has a separate furnace. Keeping those two rooms warm means running the furnace a whole lot less than keeping the whole house warm, and enough heat leaks into the main house to let the wood heat eventually catch up during the daytime.
