Northeast Indiana (Auburn)
My question would be why do you want to spend $10,000 for an outdoor wood furnace that you have to feed with $150 a cord wood? There is no such thing as free firewood. I can heat and cool my house for under $750 a year for electricity. I would feel a bit uneasy about heating loop water to 150 degrees. The only time the geo would work would be when the wood furnace was not running.
