 BURNING WOOD NOW

I had the same issues until I installed a 'whole house' humidifier on the side of the duct next to the furnace.

I leave the furnace blower running on the low setting non-stop so even when wood is the principle heat source the humidifier still works great.

There is an adjustable humidistat that pokes through the duct wall and turns the humidifier on and off based on the RH (relative humidity) of the air going through the furnace and according to the level the humidistat is set to. There is a 1/4" copper line connected to the house water system to supply it with water as needed.

Best of luck.

 BURNING WOOD NOW

In my case the wood furnace is in the workshop out back (my picture # 2), in the house an airtight insert (nearly visible in my picture # 7) heats the house, both because of efficiency and house design, to the point where the furnace doesn't really even come on if it's going.

Even though the wood insert runs nearly non-stop, I leave the blower of the forced air system running also, this makes a huge difference in equalizing the air temperature, as well as keeping the dust, etc., down since it gets trapped in the electronic cleaner on the furnace.

Best of luck.
