The only modifications to this circulator was updating the sealer between the overlap joints, adding woven door gaskets and installing the 1000F Nascar heat shield inside of the jacketed sides. Stays at room temperature day and night on those sides. I use a pedestal fan to increase heat circulation thru the house. I've used a hand held infrared temp sensor to check everything. There are no issues. This is my fifth year using this circulator in comfort.

Quite a different stove. Looks expensive. Some pics of the inner parts would be interesting.
