Hi all need some help identifying a wood stove that is in our new house we bought. Double door blower with heat tubes thru the stove and out the front. It has a shaker plate in the middle of the fire box that lifts up. I can't find any numbers or plates to identify it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm gonna included pictures.

At first glance this looks like a generic Fisher knockoff but with some unique differences. The bottom air controls and lever are interesting. Makes me wonder if this stove had a coal kit option. Is there a UL label on the back?

Early Amish stove, maybe a Hitzer?

No labels anywhere
 
Need more pictures. Open doors and back away some. Perhaps shine some light inside for better inside pictures. Take a few from down low looking upward into firebox. Are tunes exposed inside upper firebox?

Also open bottom door and use light to take more pictures below inside that door. Also remove plate in firebox floor if possible. Try to see if lever under ash lip is for a shaker of some sort or if it’s an air control lever of some sort.

Any openings on the back right, or is their a fan in rear? The one photo is a little blurry.

I can double confirm with Dean (@Hitzer) when I go back to see him this week, but I’m 99.9% positive it’s not a Hitzer.
