Hi:
Looking for an inexpensive wood stove which would be used for auxiliary heat, especially in the case of rare a power outage. Does anyone know if the most inexpensive new wood stove? Or possibly have a used one for sale?
I'm getting ready to finish a basement that has an open chimney (most likely previously used for heater) with a 6 or 7" round opening at least 5 feet high, (with a currently capped rectangular terra cotta at the top of the chimney). I figure something with a 5 or 6" round exhaust will be ideal. I don't think I want to get into an EPA stove, or something that requires outside air intake (although it would probably be easy to get through the basement wall).
It would be great to have something with a ceramic glass viewer, but then again, just running a wood stove with the door open in this rental property would probably be plenty sufficient for "ambiance".
Please let me know if you know of anything I can get for cheap in Wilmington, DE. (I do realize the chimney will need a liner, but I plan on doing that myself to save a few bucks.)
Thanks,
Mike
