Hello,
I recently came across this stove and had a few things I wanted to find out about it. Thought maybe I could get some answers from the members here. I would like to restore it and use it as a heat source in my 2,200 square foot house.
Here is a picture of the stove...
It is about 30" wide X 47" high (on it's stand) X 20" deep.
What I'd like to know...
1. Who is it made by and how old is it? The only thing I could find on it, as far as markings, was the letters "REH" and "24RDUP".
2. Any idea if I could burn wood and coal in it?
3. If I were to restore it, I'd strip all the rust and paint from it and then re-paint it. What kind of paint would hold up to the heat? Lowes has a Rustoleum brand spray paint that resist up to 2000 degrees. Is that enough?
Thanks for any help!
Rob
