ok...couple quick questions.

first.....does anyone have a pic,diagram or info on how the blower mounts on an older 4300 pedestal stove?my manual shows a generic drawing that shows where the bolts attatch,but not where it actually passes air thru the stove body.

second....i have multiple floor registers in my house from running the wood furnace in the basement last year, tons of duct,and an inline booster fan.is it safe for me to connect a series of duct work that will draw cold air off the floor of the farther rooms,and dump it into the room the stove is in to avoid having multiple house fans blowing cold air across my floors?none of the ducts are in use anymore,and are no longer connected to anything but themselves.

thanks.jeremy
 
I have the 4300 step top. The fan blows up the rear (interior) of the unit and exhausts under the top step, pushing the air directly forward of the stove.
