Ádám Tóth and Orsi Fekete have a close connection with their wood boiler, which they’ve named Marghret. They calculate that keeping her ‘fed’ to maintain the house at 18°C will cost about €1 200 each winter.  Ultimately, the volume of wood needed and the final cost depend on how cold it gets and how long the winter lasts.
