I have an electric furnace that is too small to heat the house which is the reason I bought a pellet stove. I was wondering about the cold air return for the furnace its in the ceiling of the room the pellet stove is in. Is that going to cause problems running the furnace

You can heat your whole house with just the furnace fan on!!!
