Hi all,
> I've recently moved to a northern state, after 40 years in soutwest Florida,
> and I'm going to build a brand new workshop from scratch, about 24' x 36'.
> I'm drawing it up in AutoCAD right now and I'm presently considering the
> location of a woodburning stove in the shop to keep it warm and as a means
> of disposing of cut-off material.
>
> A 24'x36' shop is not the biggest shop in the world and it seems you tend to
> grow into the space you're allocated so I'm trying to figure out the things
> that might effect the location of the stove.

> The shop will also be airconditioned, it will also have a trussed roof with
> a 6/12 pitch, 2x6 walls 10' high, with 1/2" plywood & vinyl lap siding
> exterior, R19 and 1/2" plywood interior walls, drywall ceiling with R30, a
> 16'x8' overhead door, 1 or 2 3' service doors, several windows.
>
> Should the stove be located toward the middle of the space to provide an
> evenness to the heat distribution or should it be located close to an
> exterior wall to facilitate a chimney pipe that is not 2 miles long? >
> Decisions, decisions.....LOL

> Any suggestions are 'preciated.
