Will this be your central source of heat, Glacier? We had a house once that we totally heated with a wood stove. The heating system in that house (a rental house) was horrible and terribly expensive and we loved that wood stove! We have one in the house we own now, too, and use it frequently, but it does not put out enough heat to heat our entire house, even with unused rooms closed off. And we certainly don't deal with the cold temperatures that you do.

Congratulations!!!! What a wonderful gift!!!
