Here's my situation, last year I added a Harman pf100 pellet furnace to my home I just moved into. I did this because it is a very large house, 4,000 sq ft plus some unfinished basement, and has two 35 year old propane furnaces. The original part of the house is about 100 years old. The harman is running through my old ductwork that heats only the main floor of my house, which is probably almost 3,000 sq ft. Problem is it didn't keep up very well, even with Kansas' very mild last winter, and the far end of my house and the upstairs gets quit cold, did not run my upstairs furnace.
I was wondering if adding a pellet stove, or would probably prefer a multi-fuel stove (if there is any quality ones) to the far end of my house right next to the only stairs leading up would heat that area of my house? Do you actually get much heat upstairs? Do stoves provide very even heat? I would also consider just replacing my upstairs furnace to a more efficient unit but it's in an unconditioned attic and that makes it much more difficult.
Thanks for the help and sorry for all the questions.
