first of all let me say that there seems to be a large quantity of information here with people that love wood stoves, that is cool to me. I have always been around wood cutting and burning so i really dont think that there is a better way to heat, but that is me and apparently a few of you.
now for the real reason for this post, i have bought a wood stove form my cousin that is a country flame free standing. here is a link to a pic. http://thm-a02.yimg.com/image/734b4abebe4d8c80. anyway, we are in the process of installing it and need as little info. it has a 8" flue and i have never had on of those before. it also has a heavy backing air gap in the back with an opening for a fan.
how far from the wall should this stove be?? i understand the no less than 12" and the flue dia. x 3 formula, but for a 29" stove that puts us way out in the floor.
thanks for any help
