Could you do some sort of short leg kit on it?
What If I actually cut the legs shorter? If measured correctly and carefully done I think that would work.

A Woodstock Fireview would be a good choice. It's flue outlet centerline is at 22.75"
Is an insert an option? Is there a full liner in place? Is this a masonry fireplace and chimney?
it is a mobile home and I have not found any inserts that would fit in to the opening with out totally busting all the stone around it out. It is not a masonry chimney
Not necessarily the mobile home thing, as long as the stove is approved for mobile home use. Metal prefab fireplace chimneys usually aren't approved for stove use, and vice versa. Is the stove connected directly to this chimney, or is there a liner installed? You also need to know what is behind the fireplace, and that clearance to combustible specs are met. Don't know about where you're at, but around here inspectors aren't exactly wood stove savvy.
NFPA and manufacturers come up with these guidelines for only one reason, and that is your safety.
Well it came out 3ft farther with the hearth pad that I bought while using the stove last winter. Do you think at that its still to small?Looks nice, though the hearth is woefully inadequate. No inspector I know of would pass that.
Good for you, that helps. I have no idea if the stone hearth on the wood floor is even remotely safe. It's not unless it stays cool directly under the stove. I kind of doubt that. We have seen some pictures where inadequate hearths are removed and charred wood was found under the stove location, thus my concern.

Yes, that's going to be a challenge. Not likely approved and no docs to check. Tapping into the chimney is not an option in this case.
