    Here is the stove I use: https://www.woodstove.com/ideal-steel-hybrid-wood-stove I do have a ceiling fan which does help. I only turn it on periodically.

    Mini-splits have come a long way recently. I have some in my house that are rated to work to -22F. There are so many to pick from, it will be hard to recommend a brand. That might be better asked...

    My yurt manufacturer makes their own through-the-wall kit and that's the only experience I have with that kind of stuff. If there is any money to spare, I would seriously consult with someone who...

    I agree with Bob. Clearances are stove specific. Mine for example has a 6" rear clearance because I paid for the special heat shield. Without that, it would have been 2' IIRC. In my yurt, I...

    I would ask Yurts of America if they have a procedure for this. They may even have a video.

    You can have mold issues even in dry areas if your yurt doesn't breathe properly unfortunately. We have seen this many times here in the forum over the years when people get overzealous with...

    I have a couple full cords at my yurt camp. We do about 1 cord a season there in my wood stove. I think the pellet stoves are not ideal for yurts because they are forced air heat, whereas coal...

    I have a pellet stove in my home, though I hope to retire it now that I have mini-splits (we'll see). Mechanically, I have had little problems over 12 years. I had to replace the igniter once...

    1. Are there yurts made of natural materials? How do those hold up? Yes, many but I don't know of any that make a 30' one off hand. Expect to change out the fabric every 5 years or so. 2. What...
