Which ZC Fireplaces can I duct into furnace plenum?

[K2Orion]

Pretty much what the title says.
We currently heat with an insert in a masonry fireplace on an exterior wall.
I'm in the process of finishing the basement and would like to add a fireplace. I would like the funtionality of a forced air wood furnace and the looks of a fireplace.
So what are my options?

Check out that thread on a Napoleon NZ3000 ZC install. Will give you an idea what you up against.

If you want to direct duct it, I think RSF Opel has a nice product. Is your upstairs insert heating your entire upstairs? I thought very seriously about ducting but decided against it. My 7100 does a great job of evenly heating our main floor without ducting. But our house is well insulated and over half of that space is open space so it works well. Each situation is different.

Bringing this back.
Are there any new options?
The basement is finished with ~600 sq.ft. of carpeted fun space. It was great this summer. But its 10 degrees colder than the upstairs where the insert is during the winter. We'd love to put the Christmas tree in the basement where there is more room. Maybe ready for next year if Santa brings me fireplace install.
Are the 3 that kingquad named still the best option?
I basically want a forced air wood furnace that looks like a fireplace.
The fireplace will be in the finished space with the air handler for the heat pump on the other side f the wall.

I have the Flame Monaco. It is the same as the osburn and the everzone zc. I am happy with it. I get a lot of heat out of it. I installed it with a gravity kit and a forced air kit. It keeps my 2100 sq ft house heated up for the most part. The forced air kit is great at nights. I turn the fan on and it heats the whole upstairs while keeping the downstairs reasonably warm. I do think that a free standing stove would heat better but I also like the look of the fireplace.

Check out this link and see the manual and it should answer most questions about it.

PE FP30 is looking like a good value too.

Check out the Valcourt FP10 Lafeyette.
Also have you considered a pellet stove just to heat the basement? My P38 is in the basement (family room) and is fired up anytime we spend time there (or when temps drop below 20. Pellet stoves are really great space heaters.

I am a Valcourt FP10 Lafayette owner as well. And as you described it is like a furnace in a fireplace. And this is from a BIS owner of 20 years prior to our new home and new fireplace.
