Thanks everyone for your advice on this; I am reading it all. One problem I have is that that I am only up at the yurt during weekends and other...
I actually own that forum lol. Insulation is not something you want too much of in a yurt. It causes condensation/mold/mildew issues.

Yurts are challenging to heat, to say the least. :)
It isn't required for the yurt, but a yurt can be drafty so thought it a good idea. :)
What did you load it with and how much?
I received the stove last Friday and got it inside my camp (a yurt). Here are some pics: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]...
