[Greenbuilding] Advice on Zero-clearance wood stoves

[Kathy Cochran]

I am trying to bring back to life a charming old house built in 1940. 

My south-facing living room wall is 20ft long.  2 low-E French doors, which
take out 12 ft = 8', less 30' more on either end of the wall leaves only 66"
between the French doors to put a wood stove.  Calaveras County Building
Department says they would like to have 36" from the edge of the stove to
the wood framed door jambs, which obviously is impossible in this situation,
UNLESS I can find a super-efficiently designed stove which will allow me to
bypass this requirement.  Any suggestions for brand names to look into  ??



Thanks in advance for your replies.......

Oh, BTW, I am in Northern California.
