It also has 5- 4'x4' fixed unit thermo pane windows. It has been about 5* below zero F for the last few days and supposed to stay that way for the next week or two. I have infloor heat and the building is ICF. I turned the mixing unit back again today as the wall thermometer is reading 80* F. I want it around 60* F as I have some work to do in the next few days. Right now I'm off to flood the out door rink I built my 13 yr old.Ed

My parents had one of those when I was growing up.I cut and split ALOT of wood with dad back in the day,there is nothing better wood heat!Dad built his own wood splitter and it would go thru just about anything.
I don't have good access to cut wood and no splitter,I am too old to do it by hand.

I'm sure most will find it hard to believe but I do miss cutting/splitting wood.Really hard work but it was something we did together.
