My mother in law who lives in Kharkiv 🇺🇦. Uses wood which she collects from the Forest. Keeps her warm , but she also has Central heating...which is too expensive. But myself and my 🇺🇦 wife have been helping with the bills.
But yes fire 🔥 wood is much cheaper.
Greetings from Minnesota, USA we feel your pain. Good idea to use firewood if plenty available. It’s cheap source for heating. I love Jack playing with the wood and also helping you guys. 😂😂😂 and he knows he is a star, didn’t want to get out of the jeep since he was on camera. Stay safe, Slava Ukraini
What pain?
@@dragansavic4771 meaning cold weather, Minnesota is a very cold state in US. living in a remote location is Good life but hard life.
Here in the UK they don't want uus to stay warm. There is no cheap heating, I'm sure they want us all dead 😩
@@johnross2924 well I hope not. Crazy world right now. But if the WEF has their way we will all be freezing but we will be happy as they say. NOT. Take care. 🙏🙏
Hm, why do you use my photo in your acc?😀
Hi Pavlo, I'm Canadian but live in Western Ukraine in the Carpathian Mountains. We use only wood because there is no gas line in the mountains. Over fireplace has a pump which circulates hot water to radiators throughout the house. Works amazing 👌🇺🇦🇨🇦
Wow,thanks for living in Ukraine.God bless you
There are no oil or gaslines where I live. Each home that has propane, gas or diesel (no. 2 oil) has a tank at their house either above ground or below. They get the oil delivered to the tank. It costs me a lot. You might want to look into that and see if they have that.
@@AbacusincInfoOr geothermal… It’s surprisingly inexpensive to circulate water through underground pipes all year (for both heating and cooling)… Depending on your environment you set the level underground for said pipes and bingo - though it is more efficient using a central air handler than radiators to moderate the temperature (plus you can add either an electric coil or gas/oil burner to it for emergency heat if needed, though having a wood burning fireplace or stove is more cozy).
Я просто бажаю і молюся щодня, Павло, щоб ця божевільна війна проти 🇺🇦 закінчилася, обійми 🇧🇷🤗🙏
Jack is adorable 🐕Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦 💙 💛
Героям Слава,,!🇺🇦
Keep warm all of you! Very good video...Thanks from the UK.
Thanks for watching!
I have both , if the power goes down , still all good .
I used to work with a man(now deceased) here in Northeast Illinois USA where it gets pretty cold in winter especially back in the 1970’s and 1980’s. He heated his entire home with a Franklin style stove that he had in his kitchen. He had a regular furnace but refused to use it as he did not want to pay the cost of natural gas. He even made his wife cook on top of the wood stove. He spent his summers hunting down trees and felling them to use in the winter. His backyard had many piles of wood that he used in order depending on how long they had been seasoning.
I must confess that the idea of using wood for heating a typically "stick-built" (wooden) US house absolutely never appealed to me. I'm far to worried about termites spreading from wood outside the house into the house, and from fire inside the house onto the house to consider it. Then again, I do have two fire extinguishers I've never yet had a chance to use. ;-)
I Wish peace for all in Ukraine❤️🙏🏼
Slava Ukraini ❤️🙏🏼❤️
Take care and keep warm.

Jack is like a big cat, he just does what he wants.
That is a purrrfect discretion of Jack. I would and knuckle head on the loose.
It's great to see you're free and alive!
Phenomenal that you are using 50% less! That’s amazing!
So glad to see you and your family thriving.
My hopes that this year brings a victory for Ukraine. I hope it comes swiftly.
Much love from Oregon, USA.
Anche gli europei, prima pagavano molto meno gas e materie prima.
Oggi, grazie a voi gringos, paghiamo 4 volte di più la stessa cosa.
Ebbene, io oggi vivo in Messico, ed anche voi gringos, pagate il doppio le materie prime e vacanze rispetto il passato.
Che affare per tutti😅
@@MrGionnimagiaMost of us don’t have gas in the house- so it’s not everyone. I don’t have any gas. Some friends in my state who do have natural gas well, it comes from a natural gas well on their own property. If you own your home, you can choose what type of heating you have.
I use natural gas to heat my house. It cost me about $85.00 to heat my house in December. I expect about $110-$130 for January because it was considerably colder. Conversely my electric bill was only $36.00 for December. I live in Southern Illinois, very close to St Louis.
Thanks for sharing!
In North Carolina USA many people have heat pumps. Also natural gas. It costs about $300 a month to heat a large house. Thank you for the informative video.
Son, you must have an extremely large house or it's poorly insulated. I live in Southern Illinois and my NG bill has never reached $150/month. My electric bill can be pretty steep during summer. But I run a pool pump plus a 2 1/2 ton central AC unit.
Ok
Hello from Michigan USA, we are finally getting out of the negative cold weather. I look forward to spring. G-d bless, and stay safe.
Good to hear from you Pavlo. Jack has quite the personality.
Jack Is A Beautiful Dog !!!!!!!! GLORY UKRAINE !!!!!!!
Героям Слава!💙💛🇺🇦
Many ways to stay warm when it is so cold hope you do not have any power outages this winter! The insulation has been a great help to keep the house warm and use less wood! Jack wants to stay in the car and go for a ride! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Jack in the driver's seat, "Give me keys." :D
We also live in Germany near Heidelberg in a 400 year old house heating with wood and electricity.
Another very interesting and informative video. Good to see you and Jack again. Looks like you guys have heating figured out for those cold Ukrainian Winters. Stay safe and warm!
Thanks a lot!
The honey bees!👏👏🔝🥇💯
Sending warm wishes from Canada. Slava Ukraini!
Good to see you guys again! Stay safe and warm this winter. Slava Ukraini! 💛💙💞
Hello from Belgium. 🇺🇦❤️🇪🇺🇱🇷
Hi there!
Jack wants to go for a ride! Hope you guys stay warm.
Good Ideal to get all your wood before it gets freezing cold.
That wood burning boiler looked great! I just have a wood fire place, but have been thinking of setting up a wood boiler,
Jack is adorable ❤😊 he wants to go somewhere lol 😅
Hope you, Jack, and Luba are staying warm!!❤ ❤️ Slava Ukraini💙💛🙏❤️
Your doing it right brother . That's how I did it in upstate Colorado. Thanks for sharing brother.😊
One thing about it you’ll are not lazy and have a will to make it happen ❤
Making the best out of everything possible is a winner 😊
Thank you Pavlo for sharing the facts about heating in the cold winter. I am glad to see you guys have everything under controll.
Glad to see all that effort and expense is paying off Pavlo! And of course the house looks great too! 😊
I hope all of you are healthy and well. We keep pushing for more help/assistance for your country and people, and won’t stop until ruZZia is defeated.
Take care and be safe!!
Thanks you!
@@pavlofromukraine Ukraine needs more soldiers Pavlo, when will you do your part?
@@Kevin-mk6joif you don’t like the channel, why come here?
@MikeOxlong- just asking a question bro. Freedom isn't free.
Actually I hope Pavlo doesn't get kidnapped by the conscription squads and he stays safe. I would advise him to avoid public places and transport. They will literally beat you up if you don't go willingly.
Thank you for this interesting video, Pavlo. All the best.
We think of you and Luba, thanks for sharing 🫂❤, we'll get trough this together 💙💛❤Слава Україні!
Maybe get a dog pack for Jack, so he can help. Looks like he wants to. 🐕🦺 Stay safe and Slava Ukraini!
Keep it warm Pavlo !!
You can wrap the pipes with foam to insulate your pipes! That helps also!
Yeah, it helps!They are insulated a bit..
That is some nice wood! It looks like it might be oak. I find oak is one of the best. I have 2 wood stoves for alternative heat and an oil furnace using no. 2 (diesel). The wood is labor intensive and adds a lot of particulate matter to the air. That said I stopped using it due to it aggravating my asthma. It definitely makes the house super warm.
Great g from Arizona we pray for you always. Stay warm
Fred and Jan
Cheers from Texas Pavlo.
Haaaa i'm Happy, Bonnjour from Belgium Pavlo ))
Jack is so funny, keep warm and keep safe.
I remember you used Rock wool. Commercial grade insulation!!!! Nice.
Looks like you've figured out how to keep warm during the cold winter. It's always a joy to see Jack make an appearance in the videos! That was so funny how he didn't want to leave the vehicle. He must have thought it was warm in the vehicle more than in the snow. Stay safe and warm! Slava Ukraini!
He really enjoyed riding it! Even in the yard:) Stay warm and safe too! Thanks for watching!
Героям Слава! 💙💛🇺🇦
I live in a FIAT Van in Nevada where it is much warmer than your location. I believe my winter heating is over for the year. In the van this year I am running a propane heater. One five pound tank of propane last me one week on average. My total winter heating cost is $85.
Hi Joseph! You live in the van, you mean in a car?
@@pavlofromukraine Yes though a little larger than a car. About 40 sq ft of flat floor and 5 ft high ceiling. The floor, walls and ceiling have lite insulation. There is a futon sofa bed and a snack coffee bar. I have an ultra HD Flat Screen at one end. There are two independent electronical systems with one solar panel. I have limited electric heat and a propane heater. Last year I ran the engine for heat. In United States Cities I was repeatedly attacked by Refugees of Black's, Latinos and East Europeans. This life on wheels is going on for six years and I am comfortable. Thanks for Asking
The energy never used is the cheapest, you did the rigth thing with insulating your house. My house is built 1951 and I´m in the prosess of replacing sawdust (like sawdust from chainsaw) on my roof with rockwhool, and boy what a diffrance I feel in livingspace as work progress.
Jack now has a new job as the back up camera and alarm😂❤💙💛💪🤛🙏God bless Ukrainii🙏
The good thing about wood is it heats you twice...once when you cut it and once when you burn it.
Pavlo, congrats to your achievement with the isolation. Great to see you dont depend on only one source of fire/heat. Keep on the wood boiler as well. The green party in western europe is trying to get rid of firing wood but once their ass will be frozen due of heat shortage. As you know fire wood warms you up several times: once you cut the tree, than to cut in pieces to bring home, than to split in smaller pieces and at least when you burn it. My nice and lovely greetings to Luba, the parents and my friend Jack. CU
Nonsense!
Pavlo,
We heat with what is called a "Dual-Heat Pump/Gas". There is a heat exchanger which extracts heat from the outside air until the outside temps fall to 35F, then it switches to gas furnace. You can make it run on just gas, which is what we've had to do the past week or so due to the sub-freezing temps. This morning it was +4F!!!! Freakin' cold degrees. No matter how you call it!
But many years ago, we used to heat with wood; mostly fallen or diseased timber which we cut ourselves on our own property or an adjacent one belonging to a friend. We cut enough wood for he and us sometimes. But our last experience using wood was very hard work! Our stove was nothing like the one you show in this video. That would have been nice. And our home at the time was built without, that is (0) insulation!!!! Didn't realize it until after we purchased it. So the wood burning firebox was insatiable! I had to get up several times during the night to feed it. Not fun!
Sometimes I wish we had wood heat now. But we don't have enough timber to cut for our use. So we'd have to buy it. I don't know how much a load like yours is selling for around here, but am sure like everything else, it has more than doubled in the past several years. It's greed mainly. Even the propane gas we use has doubled to $3/gallon now. Am sure it will get worse. Again, because of greed! The rich get richer, and the poor get poorer!
Slava Ukr!
Thanks for sharing it!
Another great vid! Stay safe!
Best wishes from Australia to you Pavlo and lovely Luba..!!. Slava Ukraine..!!
Героям Слава! 💙💛🇺🇦
Interesting to see some of your heating details. My gas boiler has an output of 21.1 kw. The last 10 days have been about -18°C and the boiler probably runs 25 minutes per hour. Burning about $7 worth of gas per day. Warmer temperatures moving in at the moment so will be close to 0°C soon and burning much less. I live in Minnesota.
Thanks for sharing that!
Stay warm friend.
By clearing out dead trees from the forest, you are helping keep things safer against wild fire too.
It’s a win win for sure
@@philliphall5198 I live on 11 acres, about 4 of it is wooded and the rest is in orchards.
There are more downed trees than I can burn on just that small plot.
You can see that Oh Jack, a robust and resilient Ukrainian dog, enjoys the cold, or at least puts up with it.
Hello from Virginia love to watch you guys stay safe thanks for sharing with us
I always love to see your ducks. Mine are flapping their wings and running around in the backyard. Right now we have 12 we would really like to have only six. Our babies don't usually hatch in October. Only once before.
Hey Pavlo, it's Jeff from Michigan. Enjoyed the video and like watching Jack enjoying himself.
Thanks for watching!
Pavlo tell your dad I said hello from North Carolina.
Agree, hello to your Dad from Vancouver island Canada
Thanks!
Thanks, Dino!
Great video. Love Jack having a mind of his own. Snowsogood and notsogood when getting wood!
Take care.
13:55 Jack says: "Car is mine, now!" 😂
Hope everything is good, for Ukraine 🇺🇦❤
We would stack inside firewood neatly to conserve room and it looks better.
Best wishes to you and your family from Montreal, Canada
Hi Pavlo, I love your videos, thank you for educating us on what your life is like in Ukraine. So happy to see Jack, I thought he passed away . Or is that a new Jack?
Take care, wish you all the best!
It's a new Jack:)
keep safe and alive, thank you so much
Happy New year Pavlo, I love my wood stove it saves a lot of money, it was -20c here this morning but after all night +15c in the kitchen. my gas furnace did not run. Take care and be safe.
gooooood boy ... jack is phenomenal ... i love him ... i am a doghuman also cats are nice ... but dogs are the best
Greetings from toasty warm south Louisiana, USA. I’d love to visit your country, but would not want to live there or anywhere that is cold! I’m too used to heat and high humidity😁
It’s heading down to 13f (-10.5c) tonight on the Blue Ridge of Virginia, USA.. Propane is trucked to my tank (portable natural gas). An electric Heat-pump (for both heating & cooling) helps in the mellower months 🙂 An average of $100 per month for heating in the coldest months..
Thanks for sharing that!
Hello from Missouri i love Jack he is a smart boy.
Thanks for the love and reply Friend. 🇺🇸💟🇺🇦
Wood...the fuel that warms you twice!
Somebody said even 3 or 4 times:))
Hello glad to see you jack and Co xx
Always a good decision to insulate the house. I whish everybody would do like you. Very interesting wood boiler you have. Reloading every 12 hours is very comfortable. You seem to be well prepared for further attacks on UA's energy grid. Well done.
Thanks 👍
Beautiful shepherd
This the most normal moment I
seen in Ukraine in a long time.
in the U.S. we measure firewood in "Cords" which = 3.62 square meters.
Jack is enjoying that snowy weather. You are well equipped for winter Pavlo, plenty of sawn timber stocked. Best regards to you and Luba. 😊😊😊😊
Thanks 👍
Great video. Jack is such a gorgeous boy.
Firewood is more sustainable and with a burner like that it produces very little C02, because it burns clean. On the other hand gas has a big carbon footprint, minimize use, and just try to keep it for emergencies. And managing a forest is very good for carbon capture. Keep it clean for the future and for the children.. peace!
Thanks for sharing that!
I am late to viewing your latest video Pavlo, but so happy to see you guys living real life, and finding a little bit of peace in the middle of a crazy world. Love and health to you and Luba and your whole family (Jack included, of course). May we all know peace in 2024.
Thanks for watching!
Brrrrr it's so cold. No one is getting out of the cold this winter. January is such a long month. It won't be long though before warmer weather gets here I don't believe. Maybe 6-8 weeks. It's good to see you. Jack cracks me up. He photo bombed you and chewing on wood. Take care and be safe until next time. Tell the family hello for me. Ttyl
Thanks
Good to see you Pavlo 😊
Thanks a lot!
Hello from Canada! We also use wood heat. ❤
Oh wow!
Great video, Jack is the best 😅
Greatings from Alaska USA. Its nice to see.
Hello Pavlo.
So ist bei uns auch der Winter
Good afternoon Pavlo and Luba, how are you? Greetings from Suriname
Pavlo,Luba and Jack
Certainly adding insulation to your hood should be a great help this winter. Here in Canada many people still have a wood stove especially in the countryside. Currently it is about minus 5 degrees Celsius where we live. Great to see Jack helping out! Will start to warm up about the end of February. Most of our snow is gone by the end of March. It of course depends on where you live in Canada.
Regards
Jennifer and Duncan from Canada
Thanks for watching!
Pavlo, when i Deer hunted in Pennsylvania we used a wood burning stove. It works incredible. Just blasts heat 🔥when cranked. Stay safe and warm you and yours!!
Sounds great!Thanks for sharing!
bellissimo video
Stay cosy❤
I heat my 1600 sq. ft. house in Salem, Oregon with natural gas - it comes from a pipeline in British Columbia, Canada. We recently had a low temperature of -10C and an ice storm, but that was unusual. Our average winter temperature is about 5C. The highest monthly cost for heat was $120 USD last month. When the summer temperatures became over 43C I added much insulation to the attic. When I was younger no one had cooling in their homes or cars. Stay safe and warm - I always look for and appreciate your news.
Thanks for sharing!
Don't put all your eggs on one basket.
Balance your heating sources.
We use both gas n wood.
Both are linked to the central heating so either can be chosen.
The one thing both methods are dependent on is power to drive the heating pumps.
