Perfect!... I can probably create the starting low point 10 feet away from the fireplace.

Mid week I will start this and see how it goes.

Electric heat is expensive compared to a 12volt pump that I may not even need to run.

You could probably wrap copper pipes around a hot exhaust but even the minute chance of a puncture and carbon monoxide death is not worth the risk.

I actually need something for the water to dump into and release the heat under my mattress in the bedroom... I wonder if I can use something dirt cheap like a step ladder to drill and fill with water (although I want to stay away from aluminum if it fumes).

I used to live in an apartment with fireplace turned on 24/7, with only the bedroom window open slightly a little bit + bathroom fan turns on, warm air will be sucked into the bedroom without getting killed by poison gas.

Other solution. get another fireplace in your bedroom? lol

With thanks to corollagtSr5's idea... having radiant heating under my mattress and making a sheet fort over my bed, it might be as hot as a sauna. Im thinking of using cotton sheets to insulate the plastic hoses.

You might want to unplug that pesky carbon monoxide detector if you have one. That think might go off and interfere with your project

Why is your bedroom cold in the first place? Get some proper airflow through your unit.

So many questions and even more concerns....

Is your mother mobile and able to leave the condo on her on?

If she were to smell smoke would she leave?

If she were to feel light headed and dizzy would she go outside for fresh air?

A y pipe exhaust on the chimney with a thermostat that controls the direction of heat flow. One side is straight exhaust while the other side is your heat exchanger exhaust. When your thermostat is reading low temps it rotate the flap in the y pipe directing the heat, when it hits desired temp the flap rotates back to regular exhaust.

Your van is so small you can use small wood burning stove inside and it'll make it toasty inside.

This thread is golden on so many levels.

I'd play... you need to check the air pressure flow of your place.

Assuming you can somehow create a positive pressure in the living, and a negative pressure in the bedroom, the hot air would flow straight to it without any pipe or shit.
