Hello,
Recently installed an Osburn 1800 wood stove in my living room. It is working great. I have an upstairs also which I would like to move the heat to at night a little better. I wanted to get input from you guys on whether my idea is safe or not.
I was thinking of some type of vent with a fan mounted in the ceiling of the living room where the stove is. This would be a ceiling / floor vent with a fan in the middle of some sort. Do they make such a thing? I'm guessing they they definitely do. I am thinking that the warm air on the ceiling of the living room above the stove can be pumped to a room upstairs. From there, hopefully it will distribute on its own to the other rooms. The stairway could be the cold air return in this scenario.
Thanks in advance!
