What kind of stove to heat 4-500 sq ft?

[MotorSeven]

I need some suggestions, i am going to put up a 30x50 arched steel building and build an apt into on end. The space will be 12'x30 with a sleeping loft against one side, and spray-on expanding foam on the steel. I will have alot of wood to burn and want to put a small stove inside for heat. Any of you guys use anything that small(less than 500 sq ft)? I see some cast iron cabin type stoves in Northern Tool, but they are inexpensive...does that also mean cheaply built? I could go electric, but hate paying "the man".

One stove that comes to mind is the Jotul 602 CB. You know that they're a great company; I doubt that you'd be disappointed with them. It heats up to 800 square feet. Check out their website. Don't pay "the man"-you'll really enjoy a little stove in there, especially if you have the wood! Good luck!

not the stove--but--is the foam getting a non-burning covering!!!!!??????? as when this burns--phosgene gas--instant death if inhaled
