1. I am contemplating installing a woodstove and have a few questions. I am looking at Pacific Energy Alderlea T4 woodstove. Found very little reviews for this stove. Any comments on this stove would be great?
2. I looked at the installation instructions for this stove. I plan to put it in the corner of my living room. Installation instructions show the the stove can be 3 inches from the wall when installed in a corner with a double wall connector. I have tounge and groove boards on the wall. This seems to be a little close to me. Am I reading these instructions correctly? Can the corners of this stove be 3 inches from my wall?
3. Lastly, I have looked at many different websites about firewood storage. There are many different ideas on the best storage. I am planning to build a woodshed in the shape of a U. Plans are to make it 24' wide, and each side 8' long. Back row will be 24' and the side rows 8' the row itself will be 4' wide so I can store a cords width on it. Essentially it should hold 6 cords or more if I stack it higher than 4' high. The only thing I was questioning about my plan is whether the wood will get enough air for seasoning. I see most people have wood stored in one continuous row. Is one continuous row the best storage practice? The shed would look more like half an H. There would be 16' of space between the inside rows. Plans are to have log splitter in the shed placed in the middle. Anyone see any objections to this plan. I do live on top a mountain and there is always a breeze blowing.
