Are wood stoves considered a heating source with a USDA loan in TN?

I'm pretty sure that so long as the heating source is compliant with local building codes, it's properly installed, and is adequate for the size home, and can maintain a minimum temperature, then it's acceptable with USDA.. They go by FHA guidelines, and the actual requirement is a bit vague.. It states "heating adequate for healthful and comfortable living conditions;" I just closed a VA loan here in AZ where the property has a wood burning stove for heat.. the loan went though without any issues. I'm a preferred Lender with California and Arizona being my primary markets.
