Information on old Energy Harvester Wood Stove
I have an old Energy Harvester wood stove. Can anyone tell me what the
approx btu rating of this stove is? The manufacturer, The Energy Harvesters Corporation, has been out of business for 20+ years but was located in Fitzwilliam, NH. I have the owners manual but it does include any specifications. |

Another is I have always seen stoves rated at how many square feet they can comfortable keep warm. GB |

Re: Information on old Energy Harvester Wood Stove
Yet another is emissions. Mostlikely making it illegal to sell it.
Also indicating, generally, lower overall efficiency than for stoves mfg after '90. Anyhow, BTU ratings for woodstoves are often totally bs, primarily because it's possible with most to get short-term output that can't be sustained. As important as any fictitious #s: how much wood can be loaded into it for a clean, slow burn, and how long can that be. Stay warm, J |

I heard from stove installers new installation is not permissable, but then again since when is installing an old stove on a new house "commerce among the several states"? > > Anyhow, BTU ratings for woodstoves are often totally bs, primarily > because it's possible with most to get short-term output that can't be > sustained.
