Just bought a house and it jas this Woodstocker stove. I also have forced air oil heat. Do I keep or try to sell? Never heated a house with wood before, rookie, any advice appreciated

If you decide to use it I would recommend having a professional chimney sweep inspect the stove and chimney, then look for some dry seasoned wood that maybe hard to find at least dry enough to use.
 
There are some dubious areas in this install. The supply pipe looks like its' touching wood. Considering it could get pretty hot, this seems too close. Also, is there anything else connected to this chimney flue?
