I think the P38 would do it because I heated my house with that in MA. Firt floor was always 70 but I did chew thru 3.5 tons. Not sure how much it would chew thru to maintain 50 or so. I figure if it ate 2 tons at $259 a ton thats likely cheaper than propane? Ive got 4 of the 100 gallon propane tanks behind the garage but Burn pellets in the house so I only use about !80 gallons a year.
Plus you already own the stove so no out of pocket other than the wall thimble and some venting pipe....
