What is the smallest EPA Certified woodstove? What wood stove has the tightest clearances with a heat shield?

I trying to see if it is at all possible to replace my factory built fireplace (inside a wood framed enclosure) with a wood stove. These are the dimensions of the space.

That's a tall order. I can not think of a freestanding stove that would qualify. Is this a wood burning ZC fireplace? If so, what is the make and model #?

If it's wood burning, would having the stove in front of the fireplace and vented up a liner in the ZC chimney be an option?
