The Dresden Files > DF Spoilers
Toot Toot and the dread cat Mister
Conspiracy Theorist:
I believe he had a wood burning stove, Thomas ineptitude with it was only surpassed by Molly.
Saying that it’s old tech to have a back boiler running off such a stove.
Ed0517:
I think Harry's old stove was wood, I think he mentioned the pixies bringing in wood for it too. Now, I think, he can do better, maybe have electricity. You could put most of the switching etc. in a tempest shielded area, and I would expect Marcone, considering his guests/allies, has done this. It will cost money, but Marcone had it, Harry did not . They developed this stuff to stop electromagnetic signals from getting out where they could be eavesdropped on, in even more paranoiac times, for Harry, it should stop his Murphyonic field from blowing stuff out. Might even allow a PC for Bob, in a shielded room.
Mira:
I know he mostly heated his apartment with a fireplace, but I don't remember a wood cook stove.. Harry never did much in the way of cooking. I know he had a real "ice" box, but he didn't really need that either. When I was in the Peace Corps years ago in Liberia, we used fridges that ran on kerosene, they worked fine and were safe.
vincentric:
Harry's primary need here is money.
Molly's apartment has no issues with her(pre-Winter Lady) or Harry as guest post Skin Game. The Svartalves can build a modern lighting and heating system into the castle that won't be hexed accidentally from the inside and probably be immune to outside hexing.
It just takes money. The only other thing preventing it would be them knowing about Thomas and if that was the case they would have been more hostile at the end of Peace Talks.
Conspiracy Theorist:
I am sure Lara can take the diamonds off Harry’s hands at a very reasonable price for Harry, although it will cost him one for the engagement ring. Which he will resent immensely.
He won’t therefore be cash poor, but unless he brings in materials via the Never Never the reconstruction is going to divert resources away from Harry no matter how much cash he has.
