Please look into the Fujitsu Mini-split systems. They are excellent for
zone heating - and they also do air conditioning, which you may not need in
upstate NY. When I lived in Tarrytown, NY, I don't think I knew the meaning
of the word "air-conditioning!" You will be very happy with them. I would
write more, but I am typing with 1 finger because I nearly chopped off a
finger with an axe today splitting kindling. My Fujitsu is now running
again. Thank God for it. It is my backup.
Good luck,

Subject: [Greenbuilding] Heating Options
I'd like to pose the following question to the group:
Whereas I am renovating a home from a vacant shell condition in which it is
currently inhabitable;
Whereas I desire a Finnish Masonry ContraFlow Stove as the eventual primary
heating source of my home;
whereas I likely won't have the time to have one installed before the next
heating season at which time I desire to be living in this house;
As well as I likely won't have the funds to install one immediately as I
will need some extra cash to install a foundation block of concrete below
where the heater will be positioned;
What would be a good heating system that:
Doesn't rely on ductwork
Would be able to heat by zone or room (it would just be me living in the
home at first)
Would function as a backup/secondary source once the Masonry stove was in
place
