A wood furnace burns wood in a sealed firebox to heat an exchanger. These furnaces use wooden logs or pellets to produce heat as wood is an easily available natural resources which is easy to use, environment friendly and do not produce dangerous effects. With all the important wood furnace parts these furnaces operates on a very efficient principle. The water is heated in the furnace to its optimal heating temperature that is continuously sustained by means of automatic controls. This heated water through connected pipeline is then piped to the desired location and this particular transfer of water is more efficient than forced air. In a wood furnace there is a circulation pump installed which continuously circulates the heated water. This process provides proper heat distribution and the most important thing it ensures that the desired temperature for heating a room is always maintained.

Here are some of the important parts which are used in a wood furnace:
Heat Exchangers: These are an important part of wood furnace which transfers heat from one fluid to another or across to the solid surface.
