Hello,
Thanks for letting me join your forums. I recently started using this old wood stove. I'm guessing it's from the 80's maybe. It came from my parents house. It's been sitting in the basement there since I can remember. St least 30 years.
The burn time on this is horrible. I'm loading this thing like every 2 hours with good, seasoned red oak. Once I get it going good I close the damper all the way but it just sucks air through the door hindges. Seems like maybe s poor design. Anyone have any info as to model and if their are parts available to upgrade. Seems like a decent stove but I'm going through s face cord of wood every 3 to 4 days and waking up to an ice cold house every morning.

That probably will not be for sale at the local hardware store. Does BK still supply it?
