I'm trying to decide between an outdoor boiler or an outdoor forced air stove that circulates air around the fire box a blows it into the house. All I have is electric heat at this point in my 1000sq ft house. Money is my biggest concern as well as longevity and wood usage. I would install a forced air hydronic heat exchange in my basement if I get a boiler which is a little out of my price range for now. Another thought is a large indoor boiler (250,000 BTU)that is local and could be had for $700 and putting a well insulated shelter around it. It appears in good condition. I was told it was used for 2-3 years, and sat pressurized with water in it for the past 25 years. Not rust anywhere. It is a very heavy built unit with about 3/8 fire box. The design is similar to ones being used today by taylor furnace. Any input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
