Was wondering if placing a woodstove in the basement wood supply. You can try bracing it to the house by attaching steel brackets of some sort to the chimney and structure of the house to buy you a year, maybe, but even then i wouldnt want a couple 2x4's to hold up thousands of pounds of brick and masonry Is there just that one flue in the chimney? Anyone watch homestead rescue raneys ranch on discovery channel I was watching it last night and the fathers house had a bit of a chimney fire that got out of hand and they completely lost their cabin on the homestead they have been working on for most of the show for the last few years 78 yo house, 2 ft thick uninsulated masonry walls, full daylight basement with walkin on north side (bummer), massive concrete foundation with basement stairs, laundry room floor, and two porches all poured along with the foundation

Our wood is piled a good distance from the house and buildings We have a carport and in front of the car is a porch that leads into the house It is now time for me to build a stack of wood next to the porch (actually i have a small pile now but the big pile is yet to come). My house is approx 2200 sq feet of livable space with the unfinished basement adding another 500 sq feet What size stove might i need
