[QUOTE="Mr.Glock, post: 3913516, member: 32877"] The only heat we had in our home growing up till I left home was wood heat, never had any gas in the homes except for propane cook stoves. We would bury a 8“ thick walled steel well casing into the ground about 6 feet, 4 feet from the home, stove pipe out the wall at an angle to well casing. We used these types in the photo below. I am drawing a blank on the name of those we used. They would burn out every so many years, seems like every 8 to 10 years when used like we did for only heat. My parents had 3 different homes on different farms and all had this for heat and no A/C. Houses all had metal roofs and sides, from time to time the well casing would ignite into a Huge Roman Candle and we would ooooo and ahhhh over it, it would burn out and the pipe was cleaned out. If It were dry out, all the ones living there would run out and wet the ground and watch it cook off. When snow, it still was fun to go out and watch it cook off best cause no buckets of water carrying while you watched it. Usually hoses were froze.
