My main question is what is the moat effective way to move heat from an external woodstove when the heat output on the woodstove is a few feet above your underfloor ductwork? I believe I have smoked a couple blowers now either by air restriction or too much backpressure trying to force the air down. Currently my blower is in the cold air return and i have the ducts ran as efficiently as possible Givin the circumstances. No 90s, everything is sized appropriately, etc. I think my blower is simply working too hard pushing air through the stove then down to the underfloor vents. Open to any suggestions! I'm contemplating digging out a wood cellar haha but if there is a simpler route that woukd be grand. Is there a way to calculate how much downforce cfm would be required for say 4 foot of drop in 12 inch duct? In line blowers?
Edit: excuse the name apparently someone already took mine 🤣
