I Put in a new system 5 years ago when we did the addition. we added 1200SF of heated space (total 2800sf 2x6 construction). we now use less oil than we did before the addition was put on. The old system was only 18 years old but not efficent. We have always offset the oil with 1.5 cord of wood a year.Currently use 500 gal of oil per winter.
This year we are going to try to burn more wood. I got 3 cord free ,form the utility company replacing the tele poles. I just had to cut it smaller and take it away.
