I don't know about that. I have my lower 1st house heater in the garage -
NG type. The other one is in the attic.

Get a few of these---

Get some piping-- have them setup in the garage, one 15# propane bottle, and
you are set to go...
The woodburning stove could be an issue with fuel.. Especially if the
firesource is lower than, say, what a person's waterheater is typically.
