heating with a wood cook stove??

[Joyboy]

About 1450 sq/ft. It only reached 8F today, we reloaded at around 9 and it was still 70 inside. The kitchen queen has really lived up to expectations.

I have wondered if part of why the oven works so well is that it also kind of steams the food.

They definitely don’t dry out your food like a normal cook stove.

Unfortunately I don't see a UL listing for it so still a no-go in our house.

Wow, I couldn't find that anywhere in the description. That does change things.

This pioneer bakers choice is for sale about an hour away from me. Probably a pretty decent heating cookstove for 750. Wish I had a need for it. Maybe I need to build a cabin in the woods somewhere.

It's been awhile since I posted but I thought I would post some pictures of my Heco 520.this is the first full winter I've used it. This stove is our main source of heat. I get about 12 to 9 hours for burn times. When it's 20 below outside it's 80 in my house

Nice! What size of a area are you heating with it? Doesn’t the Heco have secondary burn tubes in it?

Does yours have the automatic damper control? I always wondered how well that works. Definitely looks like you can feed your family.

Does this cook stove have the ability to heat domestic hot water?

Interesting link about an Italian wood cook stove that has a feature called Ecoplus, that pre-heats outside primary air under the firebox and heats secondary air to boost efficiency “upwards of 75%.” Another brand that uses outside air if you want to and is EPA certified, is J A Roby. A business in Montana that primarily sells Wood Cook Stoves is, Obadiah’s. They have many product education videos on YouTube. An owner is a volunteer firefighter that is very fire safety conscious.
