I want to install a wood stove in our home's basement.
My basement HVAC return duct/grill/filter is in the ceiling of the basement.
Can I install a wood stove directly under the HVAC return duct? My thinking is that we can run our heat pumps blower fan in the constant on setting and circulate the heat from the wood stove throughout the house.
Is this possible?
Is this ok per code?
Is this a good or bad idea?
Do I need to provide the wood stove a fresh air intake out side the basement?
