Freestanding Stove + Ductwork

[grdx6mt]

Hi, wondering if this is a thing?

I'm looking to install a freestanding propane stove (or possibly fake fireplace) with a direct vent through the wall. I'd like to have a duct for hot air to pass through the ceiling and into the room above. That's it, just one extra place to dump hot air.

Is this something that is factory made? I can't find any info on such a unit. Obviously I could make a vent with a hole and some duct work but I was hoping there was a premade option to help me control temps in both rooms.

Thanks for any assistance.

Heat & Glo used to have gas fireplaces with a "Heat Take-Off" kit. The 6000 TRX-I comes to mind, & I believe there were others...
Not sure if there are any models still available, but that's where I'd start looking...

Thanks so much, that got me looking in the right place! I like the looks of the 6000 model....

I'm pretty sure that many of the gas fireplace manufacturers offer an option like this, such as Travis (Lopi/Avalon) and Mendota.

You appear to be absolutely right- I was concentrating on the free-standing stove units but perhaps the only way to get what I'm looking for is the fireplace setup. A little more work to get it in, but they do look nice. Not cheap though!
