Chef here, wanting to heat a basement of 1200sq ft and the upstairs of a modular home of 1500sq ft.so,2700sq ft. i was thinking of whatever stove downstairs (family room). and tying into existing central heat duct with a 24"x24"drop ceiling return air
register with a 6"variable speed fan.to heat upstairs. i would like to hear the way others do it in this situation. type of stove,
and getting heat to second floor. all info is welcomed.

thanks, Chef

Hi Chef,

The btu's of a stoker-type stove are a subject of debate. Of the two options you gave, go with the 105 as it's a double-wall unit which will give you more control of where you want the heat.
