Hello all, first post here and a question 

Doing a full retrofit on new house. Getting ASHP installed later this year but in the meantime preparing wood burning stove. 

What are your experiences or opinions about benefit of direct air input for the stove? Was thinking to install air input from subfloor void near external vent.

House will be well insulated but far from air-tight. But considering direct air to avoid cold air being drawn into heat-pump warmed house when stove is on. 

Worth it?

Thanks all!

T

@sune is ideal to answer this, but I think he's on vacation at the moment.
