I've searched the web but I'm real interested as to what real life experiences you folks have encountered regarding burning wood chips. We do not burn wood as our primary source of heat, just use it when we get the -25/-30C temperatures as well as any power outages. It would be a great option to be able to burn the chips (as well as justifying a PTO Chipper) because I try to just cut the dead wood/branches on my property but I'm curious about how you get them to burn properly/completely in a conventional wood stove in the basement. Any words of wisdom/experience would be appreciated. Up to this point, I've just had a big brush pile a couple times a year & burn the pile, but it seems a shame when I could use this scrap as a heat source in the winter. What's your real life experiences ??
