FINALLY startin to lay the plans together (meeting with 1st architect Thurs) for a house on the farm. It's obviously out in the sticks so muni gas lines aren't a possibility so it's propane for primary heat. I want the classic vaulted ceiling, wood trim and beams, large fireplace with my elk head hanging on it "look" in the living room. But instead of a traditional open wood fireplace that sucks the heat up the flume, I think I want a stove with fans in it for function and looks.
The last time I lived in a house with a wood burning fireplace was eons ago, so I assume technology has changed "the latest and greatest" options. What do I want and more importantly DON'T want in this stove? (And anyother ideas ya got.) With 500 acres of timber I naturally want to stick with wood logs instead of coal or pellet fueled stoves.
