Doors with windows for the small stoves?

[emt1581]

Most of the smaller wood stoves that are inexpensive and just meat/potatoes have no window on the door to see the flame, does anyone make aftermarket doors for these things with a window?

Thanks!

Not to my knowledge, but then again most of these stoves are not EPA approved either. This one is:

cant change the stove's UL tested configuration , it voids the UL listing

I was talking more about the little Jotuls but that one you posted looks pretty sweet for that price! Is it cast iron?

Thanks!

Does that mean it would break the law or something?

It means when they are sweeping your remains into a body bag, they will look at each other and say, "Hey, it wasn't UL listed, but he saved a few bucks before he burned down his house"

The EPA version of the 602 does have a window. Check Jotul's website for a picture.

The Englander VL-17 is a steel stove. It's the newest baby from Englander. Designed by hearth.com member Corie.

How would buying an additional aftermarket door be SAVING a few bucks??

I like it! Unfortunately it can only accept logs 16" long and mine are 17"-20".

I know I've read bad things about the Vogelzang stoves from Northern Tool, but what about this guy?

Too bad about that one you posted though!! I love it! Plus you can store wood underneath and really dry it out before burning.

Thanks!!

Because instead of buying a stove with a window, he bought a stove and then put a window on it.

So he missed the bulls eye with his point but you get the jest, you modify the stove and you eat it when it burns your house down.

No, I saw he was trying to be cute, just wanted to make sure he didn't get full credit for the logic.

Drolet makes a little boxwood stove with a door, called the compak, I believe it's EPA compliant. Not sure how long the log length is though - or the cost, though it will certainly be more than $200. I'm guessing that that USA stove boxwood stove is just as bad as the vozelgang one.

If you want to burn your house down, then that Vogelzang model is for you.

You are going to base a purchase of your stove that will be in your house for most of your life by the length of wood you have in your pile that will be gone probably in one season?

 

[North of 60]

I see in your other thread that you havent even purchased your wood yet.

 

[tickbitty]

Here's another cheapie that's EPA compliant (and does take some long logs) - however, considering it gives a full load burn time 1-2 hrs, I am not sure how it's EPA exempt?

I dont get that either, if the wood is too long for the stove I just leave the door open and burn off the ends until I can get the door closed.

Made me laugh too. Problem is, you may have probably given a few people what they might think is a good idea. :bug:

I wonder if they make doors with holes in them, for the extra long pieces?
