As long as you are satisfied with your GPM, my rule of thumb has always been ( 1GPM = 10,000 BTU ) you should also keep in mind that 1 inch LOGSTOR is 1 inch inside, 1 inch pex made in north America is nominally sized, about .82 inches inside.

I'm also trying to decide on my location but curious how many installed there furnace with the door facing into the prevailing wind so the smoke blows into the furnace? Is it important or am I overthinking this?

Over thinking a bit

But it don't hurt to try

If I did that the wind would blow the wrong way all winter lol
I try and do this on every job. Most home owners know the wind currents around their home and can tell you the prevailing wind. When all else fails face the furnace west. If its convenient facing it into the wind does held with smoke when loading.
