Do you find that the wood is fine over night with out someone maintain it? Wouldn't natural gas or propane be less hands on and more cost effective?Scott - Colorado Springs, CO - Zone 4/5 (Depending on the year) - Elevation 6266ft

The heater only requires wood replaced in the morning and at night. It heats the water and it is exchanged with a large tank inside the dome. The tank is about 4' tall and 10' long and stays around 130 degrees. Danny works from home so he monsters it as needed. He grows vegetables in the dome but newly rooted fig cuttings are taking over.Nothing in the world takes the place of growing citrus till figs come along. Ray City, Ga. Zone 8 b.Comment

Sure Scott. Danny was going to do a dome build photo album. This would be a good time for him to do it. Most everything that can be is home maid so don't expect much.Nothing in the world takes the place of growing citrus till figs come along. Ray City, Ga. Zone 8 b.Comment

Has been warmer than normal here, sending all of our cold weather up north and back east. Should hit 70 at least again today
