Kerosene heater for short-term and Woodstove for long-term. Always
crack the window open when operating either of these so both you and
the fire can breath and operate at peak efficiency.
These don't have to be burned all day long. Use it to take the chill
of the interior of the house. Don't worry about heating at night
as this will be unnecessary if you're wearing a fleece night cap, PJs,
wool socks, and under a thick feather comforter next to your closest
significant other
It's also just safer to not have a fire going....
Most of our heat escapes off the top of our heads. Wear a cap, sweater,
socks, etc indoors and you'll be warmer. Close-off any rooms away
from the heat source that you're not using.
We have gone for a week at a time doing this with only a small woodstove
when the outside temp was in the teens during the day and single digits
overnight. Ration your wood, but don't let the interior of the house freeze
through. Use passive solar as much as possible, too.
Finally, you can never have too much firewood. But, I'm sure I've
forgot something in all this.
