I have run the Vermont Castings and been very happy. One thing you may or may not have thought about and I wish I had (assuming you"re not going the outdoor wood boiler route mentioned above): Looks like you"re in Tennessee (I"m in SE Indiana). I use the wood stove for most all of my heating, have a propane fired central heat unit that"s 90% efficient. I use more propane in November and March than I do all winter. The reason being the temps are almost too high to stand having the wood stove going but low enough the furnace runs if no stove. You use more wood getting the stove up to temp than when it is running steady, and in those months all I do is get it up to temp then shut it down. Having installed some of the newer heat pumps in some of our projects, they would have been a better choice for me as they operate a lot more efficiently than my furnace when the temps are more mild. So, keep that in mind if you get to the point you need to replace your furnace. Good luck
