We've been heating our house for 40 years with wood. One stove in the basement to heat our 3,700 square foot home. I keep a small electric fan behind the Avalon woodstove to blow air across the top of the stove. You can feel the difference in heat coming off. I don't have any data but think it works just fine. I never heard of these woodstove fans that sit on top and work by convection. Maybe I'll try one when the electric fan finally dies.
