Considering your coal.stove is severely undersized and you have the opportunity for a free stove I think it's the best choice. Maybe you can sell the old stove and.work into.a.larger one for next year.
I think I’m gonna get a HP this summer cause our oil furnace is shot with the incentives on the (up to 10k Tax rebate). Then keep the stove while we live here. Plan on renting this spot out in 3-5 years

It’s costing me about $12 a day to heat with pellets. That 2 and 1/3 bags per day. I would usually be using about 2 bags of coal per day that would be $23 per day. The coal prices here are probably more than double what you are paying out east. Either way it’s an expensive winter here.

I’m looking for a fixer upper for garage ( I like the ability to set low and run for 2 days ( I can do that with coal but a tremendous waste for 3-4 hrs use 6- a bag and the ability to instantly ( compared to coal ) start blowing hot air

That’s how I got this one. My uncle got rid of it 2-3 years ago cause the exhaust blower went out. Was sitting outside since. Was right but now it’s heating the house.
