HEARTH STOVE PICTURES

[forvols]

Could everyone with a hearth stove installed please post a pic. I am going to intall a free standing woodstove on a hearth in front of my prefab fireplace. New SS liner will be attached to a T connector in the FP. Anyway I would like to show my wife the picts so she would better understand and see just how nice the stoves look installed that way.

Still undecided just which stove for this application(it will be in my 26x30 living room with 20ft ceilings). My NC 30 arrived yesterday for the basement(started curing it in the driveway seperate thread).

Thanks
Tony

Look through the picture gallery here on the forum. Hundreds of pictures of installed stoves.

I'm working on an update to the gallery and there are some additional hearth stoves shown there....
Here are some not yet in the gallery

But your #2 is an insert without the surround right? Does that count as a hearth install? If you do a gallery of surround-less installs we gathered some here: https://www.hearth.com/econtent/index.php/forums/viewthread/50201/P0/

Yeah, surround-less installs are pretty much a hearth stove because with many units (avalon, lopi, etc.) it is actually the same exact unit, just shipped either with legs or a ped when you want it to freestand.

Semantics I guess.

My install is not yet "Gallery Photo Ready" as we still have to do some stone work on the face, but here's a link to a pic: https://www.hearth.com/econtent/index.php/forums/viewthread/52617/

Cool! Then I guess I have a hearth stove! That's what I really would have preferred, but couldn't due to hearth/mantel surround clearances. So instead I just got the most stove-like insert that would fit. It has a cooktop and everything, so I guess it's not all that insert-like other than being low and not having legs. Also the shroud on the back keeps the heat from going up the chimney.

Hey, That's mine, second down on the left. Pretty Cool huh? It's an ellipse, not an arc, that I put into the hearth design. If you are interested I can tell you how to calculate it and draw it perfectly on the floor
