2000 square feet, I'd go with a Woodstock Progress Hybrid..both catalytic and secondary burn technology, will use even less wood than a cat stove, is very user friendly, has long burn times regardless of heat load --12 hours very easily on low, medium, moderate or high heat output in my experience. Load size determines heat output,split size determines burn time within the available range which is easily up to 16 hours, so you never waste wood. Switches on its own between burn technologies as the situation demands...often burns with both technologies. Maintains a really even home temp, gets up to speed quickly, takes only about 15 minutes to get going, then burns for a good 12 hours (longer if you want) with no necessary further adjustments. However, if you want a roaring fire, or a pretty fire, at any point, you can just open the air a bit and the stove responds immediately. Close the air back down, and she slows right down. Every 12 hours or so, open the air, open the bypass, open the door, rake coals forward if you wish, or just level any coal bed, reload, close air to 1/2 to 2/3 depending on your draft, wait for wood to char, close air a bit more, close bypass, wait a few minutes and shut air almost completely to completely, and let burn until you want to reload half a day or so later.
While dry wood is recommended, and gives you a better burn and less need to clean the screen and cat, this stove willburn very nicely with less than ideally dried wood, which is a great advantage for first year burners who may not have a few years wood stacked c/s. Woodstock tested it with 38+% moisture sugar maple and it did just fine...had almost the same burn times, emissions as with 19% moisture sugar maple, and/or dry Doug Fir EPA test wood.
Great customer service, very attractive stove, very comfortable heat, and stove is built to last a lifetime. Sold directly from the manufacturer, comes with a six month money back warranty if you are not ssatisfied with the unit for your needs. What's not to like?
Love mine.
Had a Fireview (Woodstock) previously, loved it too, but not really large enough for a 2000 sq foot home...better to upsize. PH is rated to 2200 feet easily.
