Help to identify

[joker060]

I have moved in to a new house that has a wonderful cook stove (wood/coal) in the kitchen area. However, I cannot find any manuals or information on it anywhere.

The oven door says that it is a Findlay Arkland but I cannot find any mention of that model. Is there anywhere else I can look for a model name (I suspect that the door may have been replaced at some time)?

Have not heard of the Arkland. You might try Heartland. I believe they took over the Findlay line and still make the Oval cook stove. Do you have a picture you can post of the stove?

It does not look like any of the Heartland stoves. Thank you for the info though.

Can you post a picture or two of the stove?

I have a pic just waiting on approval for...

That's a beauty! Can you post a closeup of just the Oven door shot at a lower angle so that the naming is clearer?

Pardon the mess.

Just getting the wife to send me the pics.

Door says Findlays Arklan

OK, now can see all of the pictures. So far nothing has shown up for me either. This could take networking with antique stove dealers and restorers that may have catalogs from this time period. I would also contact both Heartland and Elmira Stoves and ask if they have a history or listing of Findlay models. There were several, some not too common.

Searching the web, I see this link http://www.kijiji.ca/b-ontario/findlay-cook-stove/k0l9004
It looks like a Canadian made stove. I think it was made in BC.

Another link about the history. (broken link removed to http://www.elmirastoveworks.com/about-us/)

And a bit more (broken link removed)
It seems to be Heartland now.

I have reached out to Elmira and Heartland.

Thank you for your help.
