Hi There, My wife and I are having so much trouble deciding between cast iron, steel with cast iron jacket, and all steel stoves. We live in a 1500 sqr ft rancher with somewhat of an open layout. The wood stove will be located at one end of the house in our sunken in living room. We would like to heat up most of our house without cooking our selves out of the living room. We have looked at PE, Jotul, Osburn, Drolet, Renency, and VC. We can't decide between radiant heat or convection heat or both. What would be the best way to have the heat spread around our house?
Stoves we like: Alderlea T4, and Jotul F400
Which stoves have the best seal for airtight? Which ones are better at Maintaning?
