RM0206sc asked:


We are looking to purchase a wood stove. We have a thimble and a hearth in our living room, but no stove. Our house is 1600 square feet and we’re hoping to cut down on our oil heating costs.
We’re debating size (specifically Jotul and Vermont Casting brands) and what size logs we want to accommodate (16 inch logs, 21 inch logs).
Any tips for a couple trying to figure this all out?
