A) Timberwolf Furnace Co. rates its stoves with the model number. This is the maximum square footage the stove should be used to heat. You figure the square footage of a building by multiplying the length by the width of each floor and adding them together. If you are planning to heat multiple buildings it is recommended to add 25% to the total to make up for heat loss due to having more outside walls. Also add 500 square feet to the total if you plan to heat your domestic water. If your total square footage is close to the limit of a particular size stove, it would be better to get the next larger model.
A) This is a tough question. Most of our customers are burning 7-8 cord of wood per year, heating an average size home of 2000- 2500 square feet, plus domestic water. Some burn as little as 3 cord, and some as much as 12, it really depends on many factors. The biggest factor is how many square feet you’re heating, others would be, how well your buildings are insulated, how warm you are keeping it, the type and condition of wood you’re using, and the weather.
A) Simple, with a shovel. Don’t be afraid, it only takes about 5 minutes every 4-6 weeks.
A) Our current stove prices are posted on the website, this will be the price of the stove only. The accessories needed to heat your home and domestic water is usually close to $1000.00.

If you don’t want to hook it up you can get prices from an area heating and cooling professional.
