Masonry Heater, Wood-Burning

A freestanding wood-burning masonry heater or stove used for warming or heating a home or interior space. The masonry heater captures heat from periodic burning of fuels, primarily wood, then radiates the heat over a long period of time. The heater consists of a masonry firebox and heat exchange panels or dividing walls that provide additional surface area to absorb heat from the hot exhaust gases before they exit to the chimney. The masonry firebox allows the unit to burn much hotter than a metal stove. The hotter fires reduce emissions. The heater radiates heat from the masonry exterior, which may be tile, brick, stone, stucco, or any combination of these types of materials. Also known as a Kachelofen.

Included in Cost: Concrete block walls, masonry stone veneer, firebox/combustion chamber with firebrick heater core, mortar, framing, sheathing, felt, stucco, thin set ceramic wall tile, wood stove with cast iron glass door, flue/vent, and installation labor.

Enter the number of wood burning masonry heaters found in the home (up to 20).
