Is there much difference in the way these two stoves heat given the cast iron outer jacket of the Alderlea and absence of it on the Summit?
Also, how necessary is the fan to each stove’s performance? I’ve been heating the house with an old cast iron Upland and don’t even need to run the ceiling fan - the temp throughout the whole home is fairly consistent within 1- 2 degrees. Will the convective design of the Alderlea and Summit be dependent on the fan? Thanks, Daniel
