Hi everyone,
I know you probably tire of the endless parade of newbies asking for purchase advice, but...here's another!
We're building in Portland, a moderate climate, a 6200sf 3-story. Primary heat will be 2 heat pumps, but we want to supplement with a manufactured high-efficiency fireplace. I'm hoping to be able to use the central ducting to move air around and equalize the temperature in the various rooms. We have unlimited access to wood, and price doesn't matter much, but value matters a great deal. If we can lower our power bill a bit I'm willing to invest!
Our contractor is pointing us to the Heatnglo Northstar, and we were looking also at the FPX 44 elite. I like the posipressure idea, although I've never experienced it.
What do you think? Are there other options I should consider?
Also, can anyone recommend a dealer near Portland?
Thanks for reading, and thanks in advance for any advice.
