Hello fellow wood stove owners,

My wife and I are currently planning our house. The topic of wood stoves is giving us some headaches. Due to the planned placement of our stove, we would like one with three glass panels.

However, we have a problem: on one side next to a side glass panel, we plan to have our sofa, and the distance between the stove and the sofa is only 60 cm (24 inches).

I have already read the installation instructions for various stoves. They almost always state that a minimum distance of 80 cm (31 inches) must be maintained in the radiant area of the viewing windows.

A stove fitter near us offered us the "Sendai" model from Hase. For that one, the required distance is actually only 40 cm (16 inches). Unfortunately, it is too narrow for us. The stove should be about 50 cm (20 inches) wide.

But there must be other stoves like this, right?

Does anyone have any tips for us? That would be great.

Why don’t you install a wood stove directly inside the chimney? That way, it won’t protrude as much, and you won’t have so many clearance issues.
For example, PLEWA Classic – the stove built into the chimney

There is also one from Schiedel. I believe it’s called Kingfire.
We had considered something like that as well, but in the end, we didn’t like it.

Do you know approximately how much these built-in chimneys from Schiedel or Plewa cost? I can’t find any information about the prices online.
