Hi Tom,
 
If it was me, I would cut 2 holes in the floor. One somewhat near the stove 
with an adjustable grate and a second at the opposite end of the upstairs 
with a variable speed fan in it blowing the air down. That way it would blow 
the cool air down and suck the warm air up the opposite vent. With an 
adjustable grate and a variable speed fan you could regulate it.
 
Bill

I don't recall many people in Phoenix saying that
where they came from was great.  I think a lot of
people might have preferred where they came from but
had committed to how great they thought Phoenix was
and were not about to acknowledge they might have been
wrong.

I didn't go back because I had a job that I couldn't
duplicate in a rural area, because I had a house that
(at that time) I couldn't replace without spending
more, and because I married an Arizonan with arthritis
who needed the desert climate for her health.
Finally I was retired and didn't have to depend on
local economy for a living.  My wife is confined to
climate controlled room anyway, and my son moved here
taking the grand kids, so we are back near them again.
