    Hi,
    I have a room with high vaulted ceiling, two story, so the top is same height as the upstairs.

    Is there a way I could transfer the heat to the bedrooms?
    Not sure if an inline fan would be safe die to drawing air in through the stove.

    Dunno

    Can you pipe it through a wall?

    Does.the heat not rise upstairs anyway after the top section is heated?

    The heat rises to the top of the vaulted ceiling, the bedroom is in line with the top, not above.

    Might try just an open vent and see how it goes

    It will breach the fire compartments and provide a path for smoke and or CO directly into the bedroom area involved. I understand the incentive, but think I would leave well enough alone.

    Yea, that's the part I was worried about.

    Thanks for the replies anyway.
