Hi all! We have a failing Vermont Castings Vigilant that came with the converted barn that we live in. I have been scouring fb marketplace for an affordable replacement and found this Super 27 for sale. It is 2 hours away, so I haven’t seen it in person yet. It was manufactured in 2011. What are your thoughts? What questions should I be asking?
Our converted barn is about 1500 sq ft. The vaulted living room (where the stove will be located) is about 500 sq ft. The structure is very leaky (hoping to address air sealing and insulation this summer). The woodstove will be used in combination with ductless heat pumps. Happy to provide any additional context that is needed. Thanks!

I had a company in and got a quote to install a new outside chimney and a new Pacific energy super le. It's a little more than I thought at 9k (Canada) but I still want to move forward. Very reputable company.
Anyone here ever regret their woodstove or a previous fire burning appliance? I'm in the buy once, cry once camp. Am I crazy paying 9k?
