We bought this stove with a broken door thinking it would be fairly easy to replace. I can't find anything anywhere. The only markings are on the door. American homeheater. Any ideas. Fan in the base. 20230907_084104.jpg 20230907_084045.jpg 20230907_084220.jpg 20230907_084142.jpg 20230907_084121.jpg
 
It's old and not a common heater. Most likely a door would have to be custom made. The stove is not worth much more than scrap steel now. That said, one showed up last year. Might also be in AK.
 
May I ask why you think it's not worth anything? It doesn't Look like it's had a hard life. It was in a remote hunting cabin without electricity. Then when moving it to a newer cabin it rolled over on the door. They packed it out and put it in a shed.
 
It's worth the current price of scrap steel minus the fuel cost to get to the scrapper.
