Hello and thank you in advance.
I have a larger sized wood stove i have been running in an uninsulated (save for some mylar blankets) 16 ft yurt that sits direct on mother earth with no platform. It is in no way sealed and the heavy cast iron stove with firebrick works well even on the coldest of nights wen it otherwise would be too large for a 16 ft insulated cabin. It is likely too heavy for the 2x4 shed joists and would be likely be overkill for the new space. It has no window and we would like to be able to see the fire as well.
This will be a 10x16 shed with 2 single pane windows and 2 small transom windows in a dormer over the double doors. 6 foot 3 ceilings, a gabled roof, and tough guard reflective insulation - its thin but much better than nothing. It has double doors that will not be sealed like a home.
I already have enough Duravent 6 inch triple walled pipe to put it through the roof near the roof arch and plan on using stove board and silicone to ensure a safe installation.
We would like have a stove that can hold a fire on low through the night so we do not have to get up to load it. With weight being a concern, I know it may not be possible to achieve that. I am not in love with it as it does not have firebrick and is priced somewhat high for a stove that is not approved for residential use, also doesn't appear to have a gasket, but does anyone have any thoughts on this stove, or the company in general: https://www.northwoodsfab.com/product-page/woodsman-xxl-wood-stove
I'm likely going to use a small all in one diesel heater as a backup, or to supply heat while we are sleeping if a stove that can hold a fire overnight is not feasible. It gets quite cold here for this far south, often teens or below.
Any advise on stoves or other info is appreciated
! Also any insight on how much weight a shed floor could take from any contractors is appreciated, its going to be on skids on a level gravel base.
