That's a lot of space for even the best heat extracting design stoves in a mid-sized firepot to handle your coldest weather situations. A large mica base burner would be a better choice....... or two mid-sized base heaters spaced apart.

Wal, the stove that size will work, or one size bigger.

You look into any Polish, Check, Yugoslavia made heaters. Some of them are just like U.S. made heaters.
