Hi everybody newcomer here and I could use some help, please.
We used to live in a raised bungalow (approx. 2700 sq ft) heated completely by a wood stove in the basement. Loved it! Have gotten used to warm floors - barefeet all year long. I live in Ontario so most people are impressed by that. We're bulding a new home - 2100 sq ft, two storey, unfinished but of course fully insulated, as I said we do live in Ontario, basement. We're also going to be off grid. I would really like a cook stove (don't know the brand yet, that decision can wait for another day). Do you guys think we need a regular wood stove as well? If so, where would we put it? I really don't like to be cold and I'm kind of partial to warm floors. We'll have propane something as back up but we don't plan on really using it.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
