Blaze King dimensions

[RustyShackleford]

Could someone who owns a BK Princess please take a few measurements for me ?

I am wondering what EXACTLY the 29" quoted depth (29.17" in the manual) refers to ?
Is it to the very front of the little shelf below the door ? Is it to the rear of the optional
fans, and if so, how much depth is saved with the fan-less option ? And finally,
what is the distance from the center-line of the flue outlet to the rear of the stove
(with or without fans) ?

Thanks !

29 1/8" is from the ash lip to the very farthest measurement to the back of stove. Just as you would measure a fish. Nose to tip of tail.
The fan option makes no difference to this dimension as the thermostat and damper module takes up the same space running down the middle. The fan plenums run down both sides, maybe 3/4" more near the bottom part of stove where the dual axial prop fans are mounted.
10 1/2" for your last answer.
Got your PM just before I saw this. Was out fishin last night.

Rusty, here is a pick of the back to explain the dimension's for with or without the fans. For 3/4" GET THE FANS!

Thanks much - and hope the fishing was good !

Not skipping the fans to save space, just don't think I want 'em, and want
to minimize how far the stove sticks out into the room, which is my main
reservation at this point.

With a 6" rear clearance requirement, you won't do much better than this stove in the back. It is a more square stove than many but you want the volume.

I am putting against a masonry wall (cinderblocks filled with mortar, covered with stucco)
on a brick floor - so clearances are not an issue for me.
