I was just given a northern leader wood furnance (mfg. 1982 gibbon, mn) and noticed that it has
a thermostat that looks like it will kick on the fan as the stove warms. I am wondering if it would be a good idea to test it by starting a fire outdoors, venting the stove and checking to see if the thermostat will kick on. The only thing I can find on the thermost is Honeywell. I am hoping to have a professional install it in the basement of our house. I looked up our ceramic lined chimney and some blocks look like they shifted a little, so I am thinking of trying to put in a liner. Local heating place charges 45$ hr. so anything I can do myself( safely) will be important.. Any info stove, liner, etc. would be appreciated. I have been a lurker on this site for a while and appreciate all of the information.
