When I was a kid my dad installed a wood stove insert in our fireplace. That thing was awesome. We only had to use the electric furnace when it got to temp below zero and that was just for the distant bedrooms. Other than that it heated the whole house. Kinda sucked that I was the one that had to go outside and fetch the wood, but hell that's what kids are for. Another cool thing about them is, the one we had had a flat surface on the top and mom would cook stuff on it. I remember watching homemade bread rise on it right there in our living room. It was pretty cool.
