Woodstove Safety

Larry was talking with a friend from Pa. yesterday about the number of "novices" installing woodstoves. The friend said he felt sorry for the Fire Department for what was to come. Already there have been two woodstove fires in the town he lives. So I thought it would be a good idea to post safety information about operating a woodstove, especially for people who are "new" to the experience. Some of us can remember the bad fires years ago when the Oil Embargo raised gas prices and people were turning to woodstoves to heat their homes. Don't want that to happen again.
