I’m concerned that this is harming the baby. Is it safe to burn our wood stove?

I am considering my heating options for this winter. I’m told using a wood stove is cheaper, but would one stove heat my entire 1300 sq ft home? How does it spread the heat through out the house? What kind of venting would I need for it?

How to install a wood stove?

Filed Under wood stoves | Comments Off

steve s asked:


I have a wood stove with a 6″ exhaust pipe and I am trying to “tee” into my fireplace pipe which consists of three pipes. The outer pipe is 16″, the middle pipe is 12″, and the inner pipe is 8″. What (if any) would be a safe way to do this?

Shellificent asked:


We have a basement fireplace with a wood stove insert. The whole thing seems pretty light. We have toddlers and I want to remove it for safety and put a fireplace screen in it’s place, but would like to be able to put it back in a few years. Is it pretty easy to pull the screws out and move the whole thing, and then screw it back in later? Or would I need to buy a new insert to surround the stove or have a professional come to put it back in? Thanks in advance!

Molly Bloom asked:


I’m getting a new wood stove installed, and the best place for it would put the pipe immediately in front of a three-part light switch. The clearance for an unprotected surface is 13 1/4″, but I’m concerned that even at that distance, the heat would be too much for an already overloaded switch. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.
