$2 Liquid Fuel Stove

I cheated a little by putting a few drops of methanol on the surface to warm up the bio. I suppose this could also be a emergency space heater, humidity system and water purification via boiling/steam.

After the Ice Storm of 1998, (which effectively disrupted the power grid to eastern Ontario and western Quebec) everyone who experienced that knows that fondue pots and/or camp stoves are mandatory survival equipment.
They don't necessarily put out enough heat to warm a house but they do provide hot water, beverages and food, which goes a long way in coping without functional furnaces.
