My (indoor) furnace is forced air...
The thing is, a forced air, wood-fired furnace works a bit differently than a gas or oil fired furnace. The wall thermostat starts/stops the draft blower, but the circulation blower starts/stops whenever the air jacket around the firebox reaches a set temperature... if it didn't the furnace could easily overheat. While the fire is in "idle" mode the furnace is a lot like a wood stove, putting out low(er) heat continuously. When/if the house temp drops below the thermostat set point and the draft blower starts the furnace produces very high heat to catch-up. So, unlike an OWB, ya' can't just load it plumb full and forget it for 15-25 hours 'cause it'll heat ya' clean out'a the house (even if the draft blower never runs)... more like a stove, ya' need to match the loading to the conditions of the day. To some extent ya' still need to control the temperature of the house by how much, and what type of wood ya' toss in the box. On a warmish day you might just keep a small fire going... adding two or three small splits every 3-4 hours or so, just enough to keep the circulation blower cycling on a few times an hour.
Now, that ain't no big deal if'n the furnace is indoors... but what a huge pain-in-the-azz if'n it's outdoors. I do add a bit extra before bed, but once the sun goes down it takes a bit more... and I also have the thermostat programed for a few degrees lower so draft blower won't start as much and eat-up the relatively small amount of fuel halfway through the night. Once it gets colder it won't be as much of a "balancing act" and I'll be able to load it heavier before bed. Personally, I don't like the idea of going outside to load the box during winter so I wouldn't have an OWB either... but if I had to have an outside wood-fired furnace I'd go with an OWB over forced air hands down. If I had to go outside to load the box, I'd only wanna' do it once a day at the most, once every two days would be even better. With an outdoor, forced air, wood-fired furnace I'd be going out there several times a day this time of year, adding just a little at a time so we don't cook... and likely be going out there 3 or more times a day during mid-winter so we don't freeze (and one of those times would be immediately after climbing out'a bed in the morning... and that would suck sour owl crap!).
Oh... I should add that my forced air is tied into the gas furnace duct work, so it's distributed throughout the whole house... which is a whole lot different than just having it blow into one basement room. If I load the box even ½ full when outside temps are above 30° my house will become a 90° oven in less than an hour (even with the thermostat turned off!).
