Hi, please contact me at bench70@comcast.net for more info.

Do you mean a hot water loop? People have installed several types in Elm stoves. The most common is a stainless steel "U" shaped tube, with cold water coming in the bottom leg, and exiting on the top. email me for a link to the site that sells those.

Nice job, nice video. I checked out the pics of the tubes. Most new technology of secondary burn tubes use pre heated air. Your stove is burning very clean and hot. However you would see spectacular flames on low air settings if you can preheat both the main and secondary combustion air. You will see slow swirling blue, green, and aqua colors as the temps and burn of smoke go way up. You will also get higher flue temps and use even less wood.

In my recent Elm stove videos I have shown progress with secondary combustion. More vigorous flames, more blue flames, which show higher efficiency and greater heat output for the stove. The stove is now able to sustain the secondary flames even with the primary draft intake closed.

can you burn coal in a 24 inch elm

[slatterbench70]

no, this is a wood stove only.

It will take about 6 logs, roughly 4-5" in diameter

great combustion set

What a work of art! What would be the average cost, and how much preventative maintenance does the stove need throughout the year?

Never mind selling stuff. Just do the right thing and post a rough sketch of what you did with the baffle, tubes and brick. Help the poor guy out for a change. And may I ask whats with the other door on the floor. Is it an old one or is it a replacement?

So have you thought of maybe posting a rough drawing of your baffle and tubes.for those of us who might benefit from such a sketch? Thanks
