Wood stoves generate comparable output to a gas stove while on a low to mid burn setting, depending on the size of the stove. However, on a high burn setting, wood stoves can produce 60k to 100k BTUs, far surpassing the capability of a gas stove. The clean burn technology used in modern wood stoves generates a very intense fire, outpacing the gas stoves in heat output. Some of our larger wood stoves are capable of heating 3,000 square feet, when centrally located and used with an air circulation system of some kind.
