Do like I did and get rid of the baseboard heat and adapt to forced air. I even had a humidifier added to the new furnace. My heating costs are 1/4 of what they were and the extra work that was required has already paid for itself. (heating air is cheaper than heating water) If you have a basement, that'll help with having the new ductwork installation. Price it out, then weigh it over say, 5 years. I use heating oil so I had to take a drastic measure.

Theoretically you should pipe-in a appropriate warmth exchanger into your circulating gadget. The trick may well be to get it encased into your wood burner in any such vogue as to be waiting to warmth the water because it undergone it. it must be greater handy to discover a wood range with a warmth exchanger already geared up into it.
