Hi I have two hutch stoves one is a insert type and the other is freestanding I don't believe they are the imfomous rebels the insert as a blower on the bottom outside of the doors. However my question is do we need to purchase grates for them or are they designed to just have the fire on the metal floor.?
 
they are probably supposed to have fire brick on the floor or possibly a sand bed but wood stoves normally don't have grates
