Decide what you want to use the stove for

How will you use it – do you want it to heat just one room, will you try and move heat around the house from that one room, or do you want it to heat the whole house, provide hot water – everything?

Make some calculations about the size of stove you need. If you’re just heating one room, measure the room, then use Stoves Online’s kilowatt calculator to find the size of stove you need. If you want to use the stove to heat the whole house, it’s more complicated. You can ask questions in the comments section of the topic introduction.
