Hello,
I am looking at a used Waterford Leprechaun to heat a 150 sq ft cabin with no insulation, for occasional overnight stays. The stove only has one of its original fire bricks but appears to be in good condition otherwise. With an asking price of $200 I am tempted to make do with fire bricks from the local hardware store. Thanks for any advice!
 
Which series Leprechaun is it.? They take different side liners.
One option would be to cast your own refractory panels.
 
When I looked inside the stove it looked like a secondary burn system at the top, which leads me to believe it is a phase two model. It had no cast side liners inside, just the one remaining fire brick.
