My cutoff for the house is it has to be in the 40s outside at night to start burning just a little. some years well into November, like around Thanksgiving, just depends.
Last year I was ice fishing by Thanksgiving.
We had a week of rain and cold temps little more than a week ago... had to fire up the stove in the basement when the house dropped to 63F.
Managed to get a few days of warm dry weather to dry the stacks back out, and brought in the first load to the basement.
For those of you who do not heat your water with wood, you probably do not understand what a truly hot shower is.
Went ahead and fired the OWB on Oct 1st as we got a frost at home and the house temp was 62 in the morning. Went ahead and converted the water heater to OWB mode and forgot to tell the wife as she slept in that morning. She does like the hot showers but probably would have appreciated a warning.
