here is a challange to all the experts

[tiltgyro]

I need to identify my wood stove. I put this in my home a few years ago with specs that I found on the web. My insurance company now wants to know the brand name and specs before they renew my policy. I would extremely appreciate if someone could identify this stove. I have lost the paper work and need help. I have searched hundreds of pictures and sites but come up empty.

Not being able to see it is a real challenge. :coolsmirk:

Kinda like Charades.

It's "challange"...I'm guessing it's a French stove. Rick

Send the image to me and I'll get it up for you.

The challenge remains. These are tiny corner shots of what appears to be a prefab?

It's just shy. Quit teasing it.

That is a free standing, radiant thermostatic controlled unit from Sears roebuck 1981+ or -.I don't have the catalog any more so I cant reference the exact model or brand name for you to use as a reference. I am really really sorry about that. :red: Welcome to the Hearth forum by the way. We aim to please here and will go out of our way for you. I am not an EXPERT so I will NOT take any responsibility for my replies.

I guess back in the day they didn't put the data plate on stoves like they do now? Mines on a wire leash attached to the back of the stove. Maybe behind the surround is a tag?

Nice call north of 60.. but I guess up there in the Yukon you guys study those old Sears and Roebuck catalogs pretty hard..

+1. As far as I could tell, it was a corner, or something.

Sears Roebuck items were marked very well too. Even the antique parlor stoves had ID tags. Usually a screwed on tag (oh boy, removable too) and stating "in all correspondence regarding this article always mention" (stamped number usually 3 digits / decimal / and a bunch more).

Managed to get a little more out, looks like an insert or prefab, but very hard to tell.
