We have an older monitor oil stove on the main floor of our home that we are looking to replace. The sf is about 900 on the second level. We have vaulted ceilings and the space is fairly open. We will be leaving another oil fed monitor on the lower level. We also have electric throughout the house. We only have one store that supplies stoves and they carry Quadra-Fire and Hearthstone. We looked today and the soapstone look really doesn't do much for us.
The Yosemite appeals more to us and has the size footprint we are looking for. The current slab for the monitor is 45" W X 37" deep. The stove would be set against a brick chimney that runs through the center of the house. The information sheet for the Yosemite shows minimum distance of the floor protection as 36 -3/4 from the back. Am I reading this correctly that we are ok with the 37" that we currently have?
It appears from other comments that this stove would be adequate for our needs. We have a dining table that sits about 4ft from the front of the monitor. I don't think we could go with any higher output stove or it maybe too much.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jules
