Hello All!
I have learned so much from this place prior to joining, and I really appreciate it. I thought I would've figured out all I needed to know, but crunch time is upon me and I could use a bit of help with this last question, that may seem like common sense, but I've already learned some things here that have contradicted what I formerly thought to be common sense.
I have 2 corner options in my living room for placement of the coming Lopi Evergreen. Not as concerned with moving heat throughout the long 1900sq ft 1 level ranch, as I am with just simple basics on natural flow out of the stove room. I really want to believe that it doesn't matter much, so I can put it in my number 2 location if I please, though number 1 seems like it would let heat naturally flow out to the rest of the house better/faster, through the 4ft doorway leading to my kitchen/dining area(especially with a blower). There is a 16" header over the big doorway. My concern is overheating the room more one way than the other. I know it'll get hot either way, as it's just under 400sq ft...but will the orientation of the stove toward the 4ft doorway matter that much? Apologies for the 3rd grade drawing of the layout...I felt it would be easy to get the idea.
Thanks in advance for any input!
