• Lower utility bills! Wood is very cheap or in many cases FREE! You can eliminate your gas, oil or electric heating bill simply by using a Shaver Outdoor Wood Furnace. Wood is a renewable resource and is very plentiful. In many cases our customers have enough wood falling on their property to keep them going for life!
• Heat your hot water with your Shaver Furnace's built-n heat exchanger! You don't need to buy an external heat exchanger for your hot water heater (like a side-arm or brazed plate heat exchanger). No scalding water like with others, as the temperature is accurately controlled.
   Many people save $30-60 a month on this feature alone! It takes care of all your domestic hot water needs; the element in your hot water heater need never come on. 
• Current owners of the Shaver Outdoor Furnace are also using up to 25 to 50 percent less wood compared to other heating alternatives. Since the Shaver can burn larger UNSPLIT pieces of wood it will dramatically reduce time spent preparing the wood. Costs for large round timbers are also dramatically less than for smaller split wood. You can get this type of wood for $80 - 90 a cord compared to $120-140 for smaller, shorter split wood.
• Heating with wood outside of the house is CLEANER! No more dark and sooty walls and ceilings, smoke, ashes, bark, bugs, log piles and trash in the house. Instead of moving the wood and mess indoors, the boiler is outdoors - next to the wood. 
• An outdoor wood furnace also helps your indoor air quality and can alleviate respiratory and allergy problems caused by burning wood indoors .
• The house will be less drafty when heating with the outside boiler, because there is no combustion device operating inside drawing in cold outside air to replace that used in combustion.
• Does NOT dry out the air! The main complaint with all furnaces.
• Thermostatic control provides your home with even, steady heat.
• 20 Year Warranty with an exclusive 5 Year ON-SITE Warranty covering the entire Shaver wood fired furnace. Pumps, thermostat and Fan are guaranteed one year. Everyone else wants you to ship the furnace back to them to the tune of $100s of dollars each way.
• Safety. The Shaver wood furnace removes fire hazards from your home or building because all of the burning takes place outside. Get lower insurance rates!
  
  Our furnace is made to be situated in the yard, away from the house. The usual distance is 50 to 100 feet but can be as close to 10 feet or as far as 200 feet. Claims of 500 feet distances are outrageous. Heat loss would be substantial unless tempered by a faster pump and insulated PEX pipe and maybe even an insulated trench. We do have one customer that has his furnace 325 feet away and is extremely happy!
  
  Shaver Outdoor wood burning furnaces remove the dangers of wood stove fires in the house. Any fire department that compares the safety of indoor units versus outdoor ones will declare hands down that outdoor furnaces are the winners; this safety feature is usually reflected in lower insurance rates. In fact many insurers won't insure a home that has wood only heat (indoors). I found that out for myself!
  
  With NO ELECTRONICS or fans on the outside of our furnaces, our unit is simpler and safer. ALL of our parts are off the shelf parts, available everywhere! No circuit boards to burn out!!
• The Shaver Outdoor Furnace means easy maintenance and few parts requiring service. You don't need costly electrical gadgets and features to cause problems down the road. This is a proven design of over 36 years! Keep it simple and efficient, is our motto. 
• One Shaver Wood Furnace can heat multiple buildings; there is no need to purchase a heat source for each. Simply run an extra pair of PEX pipes to the area you want to heat - even garages and outbuildings without an existing furnace can be heated!
• Residential and commercial buildings; motels, factories, restaurants can all be heated easily with our furnaces. 
  Simple, clean and efficient, one unit can heat your house or shop, garage, swimming pool, hot tub, spa, pole barn, multiple greenhouses or a small factory.*

According to the University of Nebraska,

"Wood burning stoves may not only save people money on their heating bills this winter, but also are a clean alternative to electric or gas furnaces," Adams said.

Scott Josiah, state forester with the Nebraska Forest Service at UNL, said "There also are environmental benefits to using wood heat. Wood heat produces little pollution and is environmentally friendly, especially when wood is used in a high-efficiency wood burning stove and where firewood is a readily available resource."

The bottom line? Heating with a Shaver outdoor wood furnace is a viable and very inexpensive heating alternative.
