Be gentle, I'm new to the forum. I inherited a Franklin Stove with the house when we bought it. Just recently did I learn that it's better to have the doors closed ( I told you I'm new
) I was going to make a heat shield with 2 sheets of 24 ga sheet metal, 48"x48" each. My plan: lift them off the ground by an inch each, connect them to each other with a gap of about 2 inches between them, and put a 60 degree roll at the top to help direct the heat into the room. It will not be connected to the wall, not an option at this point. I feel that this is the best I can do at this time. Oh, I'm getting the metal for free. Any advice, tips, comments....
