Firewood gives the nicest heat besides the sun. We heat all of our houses with firewood from our own property. These are the fireplaces and wood stoves in our houses here on the farm.

That house is almost a museum piece with all those wood stoves. The tile ovens were popular in Germany too (kachelofen). There is a movement in the US to go back to tile ovens in a more DIY fashion. It’s called Rocket Mass Heaters. Short burn time, long thermal mass heating time.

I remember going to visit my great grandpa over the holidays with my parents when I was a kid, and standing in front of his two burner wood stove just soaking up the heat after chores was heaven. He had a 3 burner coal oil (kerosene) cookstove in the kitchen that worked exactly like lighting a kerosene lamp. It was so neat to watch him cook on that stove; one burner had an oven over top of it and he made the best biscuits. Y'all got me tripping down memory lane!

Thank you for the tour and showing your traditional stoves. I also heat my shop with wood and use to heat the house with one small American made steel stove, called a Temp Wood top loading stove. I got them about 1969 when we moved to the country, in S.E. Illinois,USA. My boys were young ( around 4 & 7 ) I was fearful the might open a door and coals wood roll out. The draft control is about two, 2" holes with a sliding steel plate cover over them to control air flow. I still use the one in the shop all winter. I spent as much as the stove for Insulated SS chimney. The only heat that comes close to wood heat is Geothermal which we have in the house now. Yes the wood stove still sits in the house for back up heat. We have went as long as 4 days snowed in and no electricity. We can slow cook food on top of them. Thanks again , Vic

The Kakelugn stoves are beautiful. I believe they are the same technology as the Kachelofen, the Finnish Stove, the Russian Stove, which was used in many European countries historically. Here in Canada the technology is referred to as Masonry Heater. We had our masonry heater installed in our country home in 2004, to heat an 1800 square foot house, one heater. Ours was faced with rescued brick, and as you say, we fired it once or twice a day depending on the outdoor temperature and wind chill. Ours could keep the house above freezing for two days, without a firing, once it was fully charged. It was insanely expensive to install, we hired a stone mason to do the job, and he was at our house full time for weeks to complete the job.

I absolutely love, love, LOVE wood heat! When we lived in Oregon we had a very large wood stove that would hold huge logs. Once we had the logs going, it would smolder all night long, heating our house which was more long than wide. Even the bedrooms and bathrooms in the back stayed warm. They say that wood heats you twice - once when you split it and again when you burn it. I can attest to that! I actually loved splitting wood. If you have any frustrations from the day, this is a great way to burn them off. lol We also had an electric furnace with floor vents, but I don't think we ever used it. There is simply nothing that can compare to wood heat.

Back in 2004 in Arkansas, we had an ice storm that knocked out everything for two weeks. It didn't thaw for a week. The first house I bought had a large Schrader cast iron fireplace with 6" brass air knobs on the front. We kept a fire going in that stove for two weeks, and the house (3400 sq ft, all on one level) stayed around 60 at the ends and 80 or so in the family room. I recall chipping ice for hours then coming in and sitting in front of that stove. What a pleasure it was. Thank you for sharing! I really enjoyed it!

Growing up in New England back in the 70's and 80's when oil could be quite expensive, we had a very nice large wood burning stove that we used as our primary hear source. When the house was cold in the morning it was COLD!!! But 30 minutes after the stove was started the house was cozy. We would set a large pot of water on the stove to humidify the air and as the stove was on the end of the house far from the bedrooms we had a fan circulating the warm air. I loved that.

I grew up on a farm, in a wood frame house with a wood stove. ALL my family has some kind of lung issue now. When you went to school YOU were one of few that Smelled like burning wood. The ONLY room that was comfortable was the one with the Wood Stove in it and the constant processing of wood in summer took away from the daily chores of the farm. When my oldest brother came out of the military he bought a home with CENTRAL HEAT. I thought I was in paradise. No smell, all the rooms were the same temp and you didn't need to wear long sleeves, sweaters and socks and shoes ALL winter long. Nope. Grew up with this source of heat,,am NOT going back to it either. I built my home so well insulated that we use very little power to heat it and THAT I LOVE.

I just love the tile stoves, with all that mass to keep the heat. In the 70's I was the farthest South and West dealer for Jotul wood stoves, at the time they were the most efficient wood stoves available in the US. I still use the Jotul combi-fire #4 to heat my house on the chilly winter day here in central Florida. I sold many of the little #602's like you have, I wouldn't worry about the crack in the side to must. One thing that was hard to get my customers to do was NOT tighten the bolts holding the parts together, just snug, then build a small first fire so the parts can move a little with the heat and find their place, then clean it, snug the bolts again and put furnace cement into all the joints. I would do the same with your #602 and cement the crack. If you tighten all the bolts on a stove and start a big first fire it will crack somewhere almost every time. Thanks for the beautiful video of your home and stoves.

I am in NE TN now, have wood heat, there was a stove in here when I bought the house in 2007, I sold that one, got another and finally got a Summer's Heat wood stove. I get free wood from the Wood Ministry here in Greene County, TN. As Paul Gautchi (Back to Eden) said, Wood comes with the elements of the sun in it, it is the best type of heat for all humans! How I would love to have the old cast iron woodstove, the ones you showed are just beautiful.

I think that one of the reasons that these wood stoves have a place to heat up things on the top is so you can boil water. Heating your house makes the house extremely dry and boiling water to put it into the air will help that. Idk if that’s really why they have those burners but it is a good idea to humidify your house in the winter.

It burned all night, there were never frozen pipes. Awesome stoves.

Currently, I live in New Mexico, and it does get cold in the winter, and my home has a wood stove insert in the fireplace. I love it and it adds so much to the home in my opinion.

I only cut what dies naturally or storms take down. We also have a fireplace that we enjoy. It heats a little but is mostly for looking. A fire is very comforting. Wood heat is constant and much warmer that any other. I burn about 10-12 cords a year but I keep 40 cords seasoned and ready. I have a shelter house, wood shed and outside stacks.

When we built our house in 1982 designed it with wood heat in mind. We use a Tempwood top loader. Go through about 2.5 - 3 cords a year. We have enough land that we are able to harvest our own wood, so except our labor and chainsaw gas we heat for free. We also use the stove to act as a preheater for hot water.

The stove at about 9:25 was most likely designed to burn coke or coal. That's why it has a door on top where the coke can be poured in. The little gate behind the lower door is to keep the hot coals away from the door.
