Need A Large Firebox? - Need To Heat A Large Area?

[BrotherBart]

This ought to do it. Twenty-two cubic foot firebox.

Whoa, that's not a trivial stove, but pretty clean looking at that. I wonder how long 1" firebrick will stand up to 30" logs being slammed into them?

Wonder if they passed the EPA test? Probably exempt some how.

shure, but who wants to load 22 cu ft of wood at a crack when the summit will do it all on a damp tooth pick (and clean the garage) ;-)

I'm surprised they're only getting 300K BTU (Presumably "per hour") I thought most wood stoves with around a 3cu.ft. could get close to 100KBTU. Their stove has a 7x bigger fire box and only does 3x more heat? I guess either heat output doesn't scale linearly with firebox size, or they are running up against a barrier moving air in and flue gas out. They do mention they are still running a 6" flue!

Griz, for the record it doesn't clean the garage, it shovels the driveway and walks the dog Oh ya...and it's good for leaving at 6am and coming home to a warm house at 8pm at -20 Celcius :kiss:

EBT baby....you know you waaaaaannnnntttt it!
