I am very very surprised too! Not so much by the power needed, rather by the fact that you get to heat 150m2 with a stove that is according to the picture at a corner of the house.
I know too
2006 11 xNUMX 15.7 September House, 3 rooms, south / north facing, thick curtains on all windows and parquet bedroom, office and dining area on tiled floor plus thick carpet on parquet in office and bedroom and on tiled floor in the living room.
At this moment, all doors open of course
- outside -6
- main room south and north (living room, dining room, kitchen) purring stove, ie 50% of its power: 20.7
- south room (mid-room thermometer) 17.9
- north office (thermometer "at the other end of the diagonal) 17

At the bottom of the diagonal is in the office (the small electric heater - normal - is always there but not used).
For the moment no: with parquet, heavy curtains and thick carpets it is perfectly pleasant.
In the room we removed the radiator that was encumbering us (the airedou do 1.20 long ... pfff)
Honestly it does not seem that the manufacturer has demonstrated a special technique for insulation (a priori placo / wool glass / placo ... I do not know what is between the outer plasterboard and the facade proper ... I have never pierced in this direction)
We do not have the original documents for the construction of a house that was to be a second home rather summer vocation.
All this to say that a good orientation, good insulation, a good interior and probably also a good stove are perhaps as effective but above all much cheaper than a deluge of expensive alternatives ...
Which does not prevent me from admiring these alternative solutions.
