[QUOTE="FearNoWind, post: 1220525, member: 50867"] iMO, it's all relative to the size of your tipi. Unlike a straight wall tent, you can't get a stove as close to the tent wall in a tipi (the wall angle means you have to move it further out toward center) so you lose more floor space than you would with the same stove in a straight wall tent. I'd opt for smaller stove in the center of the tipi (it doen't take much to heat a tent) and make sure the stove pipe is long enough so that the spark arrestor allows air flow to carry any minor sparks away from the tent walls. If there are live embers coming out of your chimney that are heavy enough to fall down on the tent there's something wrong with the way the stove is being managed. [/QUOTE]
