[QUOTE="Colt45, post: 480076, member: 1693"] I bought a Vermont Castings Aspen C3 wood stove, 5 years ago I have a smaller shop 24x24 and it works great. I think its recommended for approx 1500 SQ feet, its the smallest Vermont makes, and does not have a fan kit for it so I just mounted a vertical fan behind it as I have it mounted in a corner and wanted to blow the hot air out into shop. It has very tight clearances to walls, 3 inches to walls if mounted in a corner but i went with 5 just to be safe, its rated for mobile home use also. Has a built in hot plate on top and its solid cast iron. It also had a $1200 tax credit when I bought it, as its considered "green" energy and uses "renewables" so it came with an EPA stamp, dumbest thing I ever heard of but I took the credit, no idea if that is still available or not. Got it at Keller Hearth and Home in Mandan. Good luck, there are lots of stoves on the market! Forgot to include that the stove auto-regulates the air intake, so it automatically adjusts to keep the box in the sweet spot for heat production, its one of the features that got it the EPA stamp, so there is no damper to adjust, its all just automatic and works great [ATTACH type="full" alt="aspen.PNG"]82617[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
