That is a benefit of the having one below and with the floor joists open. And it goes without saying that one needs to be diligent about the safe installation too. This stove is a bit old, but safe when used correctly It has a large fire box, 22" will fit in, and, the btus coming off it, its under the south half of the house, + with all the windows, even with the wind blowing across onto this hill, easily keeps it comfortable, and I can still do the work of providing the wood, seems feasible to take advantage of it.
I think its safe to say that living in this area, often requires one to be as productive as possible in 2-3 day windows, given weather changes, it would be nice if we finished off like last year, ground dry and hard etc., might be possible to get all these logs out, just seems endless how much of it from dead fall, leaners, and storm damage, usually the only hang up is getting em out, weather, time to do it, etc. rest is straight forward once you got em !
The doors and windows are relatively tight, but just the same, house gets some fresh air, which I like, and the extra heat down below, + the sun, you never feel a draft. A youngster being so close to the floor, warmed as if you had pex under it, its noticeable, she's happy being warm I'll bet. One thermostat here is near the cellar door, open that up and what radiates from the floor keeps the main zone off on a sunny day and for longer intervals at night. Nice to have heat downstairs, garage is also heated from it, provides a warm work area, 65-70F, I keep my tractor ready to use in there, all of it makes this weather tolerable, without these things, kind of hard to imagine at this point LOL !

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
