[QUOTE="tibikedad, post: 2655846, member: 41146"] In the winter months, I was burning about 250 gallons of oil in 4 weeks. This came to about 1000 gallons for the coldest months (mid Nov - mid March). Then, the rest of the year was a little less than 2 tanks (about 400 gal), for a grand total of about 1400 gal. Oil now is over $3.00 / gal, so I would have to pay about $4200 / year for heat and hot water. I buy 2 tri-axe loads of wood a year, for about $800. I don't use all of it in one year, so every 3rd year or so I only need one load. I'm sure I save over $3000 / year with wood. I have a Tarm Excel dual fuel boiler with an external heat storage tank, so it is very efficient. I only burn once / day, except during the very coldest days. Sure beats paying the Arabs for oil!
