Central North Carolina, near Siler City. Heating 2400 sf with a Hearthstone Heritage seems to work just right. From November all the way through April. I'm from Minnesota, so I do realize that this is not "Winter" with a capital W. But it gets cold, teens at night and highs in the 30s, 40s. Here we have four actual seasons that each last 3 months. A real spring lasting 3 months, can you imagine that? In Minnesota we went directly from winter to summer. Unless you call that one week in May where the snow melts "spring." ;-)

In a southern spring the glorious thing about a woodstove is having windows open and the stove going. You can hear the birds singing, feel a slight breeze and smell the flowers, and still be toasty warm. Because we have free wood, it's pure luxury. It's nice for "poor folk" to have a little luxury. (although how can I call myself poor when I have free wood, right?)
Liston, I can only imagine that climate right now but I'm counting the days when I get to experience it myself. Getting out of FL ASAP!! :coolsmirk:
