I live in northern MN. Winters can be brutal. My house uses gas for heat. I am thinking about installing a wood burning stove. Lead times on these are not bad right now - it seems not many are looking toward heating when it's 90+ degrees.
Are any of you moving in this direction as part of your prep? Thoughts?
Passive house. But that is more of a new construction thing.
Anyway, the woodstove might save you money even if the grid stays up. Natural gas can and does go out, often at the worst possible time. Don't know if that also happens up north, like it did in Texas in 2021.
