I split my wood fairly fine so that I can fill my stove more fully. I have a "Hearthstone" soapstone stove which takes wood at a maximum of 22" in length and it does not have a large firebox nor a large door as do some of the welded steel stoves. It is "airtight" or at least as nearly so as can practically be attained. I burn mostly ironwood (hophornbean) which is one of the densest woods found in North America and therefore produces a lot of BTUs for it"s weight. Burning "all-night" in an airtight stove is more about the BTU output of the wood and controlling incoming oxygen than the size of the wood. I have no trouble getting a good 8 hours sleep between the time I load it at night and reload it again in the morning. There are plenty of coals left to rekindle the fire and the stove is usually 150 to 200 degrees when I reload it. I know I could have a larger stove in which I could burn larger wood but I really like the looks of the soapstone stove in my living room.
