A number of e/w stoves have built in andirons to keep any wood from rolling against the glass . A stove that could be loaded e/w or n/s is a plus if your hearth is large enough . Sometimes ( even in an e/w stove ) loading the wood in a crisscross pattern can be beneficial .........
 
We finally got our chimney looked at and we are deemed safe for a stove and liner. We're going to order the Jøtul F45 Greenville. Now we are preparing the hearth. Thank you all so very much for your guidance.
