Building a new, tight, home and want a wood cooker, that will also heat the place, and has direct outdoor makeup air. Have found J A Roby products where this seems to be standard, a few La Nordicas, and Rizolli which I am not fond of aesthetically. Any advice much appreciated.
What new wood cookstoves have outdoor makeup air?

I just bought a J.A. Roby Sirius and it is in the back yard "unpacked"--fixing the area for it to be installed in but winter snow set in and delayed me at this time but what do you mean by outside air? I am new at this wood stove burning and have not lit my first fire yet. Welcome to the forum...Mrs. Clancey
You can have air piped directly from the outdoors into your woodstove to fuel the fire. If not used, the stove fuels itself with the air inside your house. In a very tight house if you do not have a makeup air system sufficient for fueling the stove it can create negative pressure in the home.
Thanks for the information..appreciate...best wishes for your stove deciding and installing...clancey
