Im looking to covert std fireplace to wood insert or freestanding wood stove.
Im concerned about the benefit of either and asking help from the experts.
The stove would sit in a 21x24 room with large windowns and a vaulted ceiling w/ fan. The room is at the end of a colonial sytle home, above a cold garage. There is a 7'x7' doorway that separates the room from the rest of the house. Now to my concern...Will the heat from the stove exit the room the stove will be situated in and benefit me by adding heat to the rest of the home ?
Also- Is an insert the best way to go. ? Ive added a pic in hopes to stimulate some discussion that leads me to the right decision. THANKS.
