  • Amazing , stove...

    Do you think , this stove,can heat a mini house of 8x20 feet?

    After, you have start your fire,can you use ,freshly, cut wood(more wet wood) ?

    I from Quebec Canada , do you thing It legal to use this stove inside , do I need some approve before?

    

  • It is design for cooking and not really for heating. I would not recommend using it inside a house unless you use a way to pipe the smoke out. I do sell a Indoor / Outdoor Rocket Stove which can be found on eBay that has a plate that fits on top and has a 4" output for 4" chimney piping. It is best to use dry materials only with these rocket stoves. Wet wood would either not burn or really smoke a lot if it did.

  • Pearlite is what is used for the insulation on these rocket stoves

  • Once the stove is cooled from using, you just lift it up by the handle and dump the ashes out. You would want to make sure the ashes are cold.

  • i made a rocket stove then it went to outer space then i didnt have one :(

  • @jimprice09 If you could incorporate thermal mass insulation it should work fine, given that you vent it properly.

  • digging a dakota hole works too.

  • Looked a nice piece of kit, but I of the understanding that a skirt was necessary to conduction some of the convection currents up the sides of the pot. It was this increased flow around the pot which contributed to the devices efficiency!!

  • what do you use as insulation.

  • nice.
