Hey, so I live in about 2600 sq home no basement, no duct work in my house. I have a wood stove with baseboard heat, my house is open concept through out with catherdrial ceilings. I live in canada and I know the winter get cold this way. So I need advice there is the wood stove which truly happy about, but I want to get away from the cost of the baseboard when me and my wife are not at home during the day, he has a older fireplace house as well but needs a insert, my question to you guys is with no duct work no gas on the road would a propane insert be most benefit to install to heat home when wood stove not working? Or is there other opitions out there I should be looking at? Please help I need advice on what smartest investment would be. Thanks

Propane can get pricy depends on how much you will use and you have a fairly large home you would have to size up that unit to heat that much space.i just purchased a harman accentra 52i insert wich is a pellet stove I love it.it is rated to heat your size home I think the pellets would be a lot cheaper than the propane if you had interest in a pellet stove.the 52i will run on its highest settings very cold weather for over 12 hours on a full hopper and maybe a day and a half on warmer days.not sure how long you would be away but this maybe an option for you.
