December 31, 2015, unless your buying for a strictly commercial application, you can also use a coal stove to heat your house as well.

Yes and no, I don’t like anytime the government finds a way to get more people under their very intrusive thumb, on the other hand after running a gasser since the 5th of November I wish I had one sooner.

Burns a LOT less wood, none to very little smoke and I don’t end up smelling like smoke or choking on smoke when loading it.

I think that's the way to look at it. No one really likes it but, Hey! look on the bright side. They could be BANNING wood burning!

Just wait...

I'm sure at some point a few years ago, someone said the same thing about banning traditional outdoor wood boilers...
