Searching info about oil/wood boilers

[webexplorer]

Do you have a broiler (furnace) that burns oil and woods for your house? If not, do you ever heard of anything about oil/wood boilers?

Which oil/woods boiler are the best? i.e name of the company.

Oh yes! That is called outdoor furnace, they are not cheap but very awesome!

I have seen this, which was owned by my friend. Mahoning Outdoor Furnace

I did thought of buy one for our house, small one version, but because I found out that my gas bill for heating alone is alot cheaper than I thought and payback will take at least 20 years, not worth it so I abandon this idea.
