Heat Circulation
From Cornburning
Corn stoves sit in one room but if you are thinking of heating a whole house from one stove you need to think about some ways to move heat around. These fans will provide some circulation.
First, a fan that sits on top of your freestanding stove. This fan will circulate air within one room.
Here is a fan that mounts within a wall. This fan will allow heat to circulate into a dead-end room This particular fan is available from [Home Depot] and fits in well with your home.
Attach a heat reclaimer to your stove pipe to help capture the heat escaping through your chimney. By circulating the flue pipe's heat, a heat reclaimer increases the level of warmth obtained from your wood or coal burning stove.
[Vogelzang's Heat Reclaimer and Heat Grabber] offer both 6" and 8" flue pipe sizes.
Nutone Fan can transfer heat from your hot spot to cooler reaches of your home within the attic.
