I am debating on whether or not to sell my Jotul firelight DV.
It's a '99 enameled green and is in good shape, downside being no blower.
I purchased it last fall for dirt cheap and considering all of the good things I've read about this model, I felt it would be a great heater for the dead spot/side in our home. I've yet to install it but the 40k btu's was a big draw for me.
My hang up is that our main LP heater is a 32k btu Lopi Berkshire with soapstone and a blower and we simply love it , and I believe even though it throws less heat than the jotul, another Berki would be more than enough for the area we plan to heat. The jotul is also a bit larger than the berki so the space versus the bang for the buck is weighing on my mind..
All of that said, If you had the choice would you :
A] Install the jotul and make do with got ?
OR
B] Sell the Jotul and matching hearth, buy a good used '06 Lopi in cast iron finish no blower or soapstone and have a couple hundred bucks left over ?
I am kind of stuck, and almost feel as though I am over thinking this?
Forum thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks,
