Knowing it will kick in when
the fire dies down lets me sleep a little easier.
It also functions as a main
heat source when the outside temperature is above freezing.

Also great is the eco-heater! We have seen them installed in houses and even chicken coops, but we don't have one ourselves. Maybe some day... http://www.eco-heater.com/
