My guess is coal...
 
I think it's purty, I'd buy a house just 'cus it had that stove......... Think maybe it's a gas ring, not sure..............
 
fugly x2
 
Its ugly alright. :)

I think Whitefield made a Ceramic stove that looked similar. To lazy to do a google image

Try Whitefield Renaissance??
 
Ok guys..here is an update...it turns out to be an OIL stove ...I guess that is why it doesn't look overly used!!
 
I thought I seen one at a dealer in Isanti, MN. Supposed to be highly efficient,and run without electricity. Good backup!
 
It`s an oil stove . It looks to be cast iron, they are beautiful and they burn clean employing a carbeurator and catylitic convertor that pre-heats the vapors ,gets super hot, and glows red and produces a short circular bright blue flame similar to that of a gas stove. Heat control up and down is simple turn of a knob and near instant reponse .They do throw a lot of heat.
It requires no electricity and maintenance is much less than a pellet stove. These stoves are widely used in Europe. Most are made in Belgium.
I burned one for 6-7 years in my finished basement before I switched to pellets . I heated most of my upstairs too. The downside is they are NOT any cheaper to run than my central oil system. We just happen to like a stove of any kind and an alternative heat source in the house.
If the price of oil hadn`t risen as it did I would never have switched to pellets.
 
Just for what it`s worth , the picture shows the verticle heat proof mirror strips that reflect and enhance the colorful red catylitic and blue flame. Surprisingly thay stay very clean and after a months use all it requires is a wipe to remove a slight oil/soot film.

I wonder if you could have converted it to a veggie oil or something. Many places(with large fryers) Will give you all the used oil for free. I believe they are charged to have it removed, used to anyway. Never no these days nuttins free anymore!

This unit is a Deville Oil Stove from Quebec Canada. It is gravity fed and does not require electricity. As oil stoves go, it is in the lower quality level.
The stove shown is at the top end of the Deville line - part of the constuction is cast iron - the green enameled portion that you see in the photograph.
I sold a few of these in Nova Scotia, but they were no where near the quality of the Napoleon OS-10 stove.
 
Welcome to the forum zabadooie. Old thread but good to know brand if anyone follows up.

What do you have for a pellet burner? You could always start a new thread, introduce yourself and share of photo of your set-up:)
