I lived in a place purely heated by a wood stove in the Yukon. It was glorious, easily best heat and nicest feel ever. When it was past -40 I’d get up at 1am to put in more wood, otherwise I’d have to spend 30 minutes in the morning lighting it again.
Places heated with wood stoves are NOT damp or miserable. I loved it. Working on doing it again.

- testing22321 1y agoI Put wood in it twice a day in winter three when it was proper cold. Never in summer. New ones that have a catalytic combustor go 24 hours without touching them easy. Also you miss the point. For tending the wood stove a few times a day in winter I got to not go to work 30 hours a week.
- Doxin 1y ago> Places heated with wood stoves are NOT damp or miserable. A vaguely well constructed place with a wood stove doesn't have to be damp and miserable. A sod hut is going to be. Imagine a tent except it has grass sod for a roof. It's going to be moist all the time. Plenty of ye olden construction and heating methods are perfectly fine even today. A sod hut is not one of them.
