Default Insurance company band wood furnace in garage

Hi Bob

The insurance companies around here started banning wood (solid fuel) furnaces in garages. Last winter in mid winter they wanted me to remove the chimney from my old shop/garage because I have a large rated Canadian built wood fired hot air furnace.

Not a real problem as it had not been used since 2004 when I built the new shop which has propane heat.

What I get a kick out of is this is an insurance company from Maine I'm sure of course that there are no wood stoves in garages in Maine.

Wonder what their reaction would have been had said you want me to disconnect Lucifer?

I find centigrade temperatures depressing, don't mind it the summer but in the winter it is the " - " negative numbers all winter long. With the Fahrenheit scale you only get negative numbers every now and then. Heck we have had entire winters when it never got negative.

Cheers Phil
