Year? a Monarch 2 Burner Wood Stove for Cooking

[kgame]

Does anyone know the year of this wood cook stove?

It came out of a 1910 home in Medford, Oregon.

Serial number: W-33164

Style number: 24PX

This version has 2 ports in the back (cold in, hot out) for a water heater coil.

It has 2 ash clean-outs (one in the rear the other in the front. The ash box is in very good condition and comes with a convenient handle that makes carrying the box outside for super easy emptying.

The exterior finish appears to be original porcelain enameled but I'm not 100% sure.

1 adjustable damper located in the rear.

1 on/off flipper where the chimney pipe connection area is.

I would guess it's from the 40s or 50s. Yes, that is a porcelain jacket.

Is anthracite nut coal a good choice for this stove? (broken link removed)

That is probably the right size yes. But that is really expensive coal. Is bulk delivery of coal available in your area?

Thanks for mentioning that. I'll have to ask around. We're in between Medford and Grants Pass, Oregon

I think Oregon requires an EPA certified stove on new installations.

I will let you interpret the regulation. https://www.oregonlegislature.gov/bills_laws/lawsstatutes/2009orLaw0387.html
