Has anybody heard that there is not sufficient heat when you install a (pellet) stove on either a north or south wall?
If yes, than which wall is not good to install on?
i don't think i would want my exhaust vent to have to fight to wind directly. I would put it on an East or West wall and the winds would blow across the vent rather than into it.

Obviously there are some considerations to be aware of when venting a pellet stove such as proximity to windows, doors, ground, shrubs etc but I don`t recall ever reading any manufacturers specs or recommendations regarding which wall North,South,East, or West that it should be vented on. Unless you have an extraordinary situation it shouldn`t be the reason why your stove isn`t heating that room.
