A new home brings us a new challenge:bang:, the age old problem of somewhat even heat distribution with a wood stove/insert. We've got a ranch home that does not have an open floor plan and does not have a chimney in an ideal location. We're stuck using the existing chimney because I already have a Jotul C450 insert that I'm not interested in parting with. Anyone have any suggestions for effectively getting other rooms heated in a home with a chopped up floor plan like this? View attachment 259075 I'm leaning towards using a 4" - 6" duct that runs from the family room to the living room & inserting a duct booster fan inline to get the air moving. Yep, I'm looking at moving hot air, I've read that some people prefer to move the cold air to the stove area, what was your experience or preference?
