I never really thought of doing it, but this link caught my eye http://myprojects.warmlyyours.com i laid out a design, its a really small bathroom, the heater itself would only be about 5x3 feet. Do they sell this sorta stuff in local stores? They want about $375 shipped for a whole...

So I've never had anything besides a clean natural gas "simulated" fireplace. but i just got a home with what looks like a good old fashioned log burner. I havent even peeked inside yet, but my first concern is how messy is it? I'll probably have hardwood floors in the room, how do you clean...

Just wondering, are the current hard wood/simulated woods suitable for installation in a bathroom in regards to the moisture or water on the floor? Will it cause warping? I'm talking about the prefinished stuff from the local hardware suppliers...
