800 sq' house - small area for woodstove

[acornkc]

I am looking at a few stoves - Jotul F45 V2; Heartstone GM 40; Lopi Answer NexGen and EnerZone 1.7 for the main level of my house. I prefer the small depth of Lopi and Heartstone, which are under 17". I like the reputation of Jotul,but it is much bigger. And EnerZone 1.7 was recommended,but it felt poorly made and is large.

currently I have a Quadra Fire 4300 in the basement, which I am having removed and a smaller stove added to the main floor, as I don't want an other winter spent in my basement.

I believe the chimney on each stove can be from the top of all the stoves so that all the stoves can sit relatively flush to the chimeny, which is in the center in the room.

I want to use this wood stove as my primary heat and only turn on the boiler when absolutely necessary.

Have you looked at stoves from Woodstock Soapstone? There is a model that may fit your room size fairly well, the Survival Hybrid model:

Right now Woodstock is offering Vermont residents a point of sale rebate towards many of their stove models. You would qualify for the one that involves removing an older stove and replacing it:

A Woodstock Fireview would also work if the dated style is ok. It would also be good to look at Blaze King stoves. FWIW, shallow stoves need to be loaded E/W which reduces capacity somewhat.

I am heating the same size home with a Blaze King Sirocco 20. Works nicely and really takes little room. It's the stove in my avatar. Worth researching the Blaze King brand if you are going to be using the stove as primary heat. Welcome to Hearth.
