Blaze King stoves and Torpedo Heaters




Most of Blaze King stoves provide the optimum heating efficiency from solid wood fuel. Imagine, that when wood is initially burned in the firebox of the stove, usually as much as one-third of the woods energy is released as gases and liquid/vapor materials. Blaze King catalytic combustor stoves capture these gases and materials and then burns them instead of allowing this valuable energy source to escape up the chimney.

Gas Fired portable torpedo heater has continuous electronic ignition, variable heat angles, fuel safety shutoff, and automatic overheat shutoff. Such heater can perfectly heat such small spaces as workshops, barns, warehouses, or construction sites. Larger units (factories, warehouses, airplane hangars, agricultural settings, and other large open areas) can also be heated by this portable torpedo propane heater. LP units include 10-ft. hose and regulator.

About Efficiency of Wood Burning Fisher and EPA Stoves




Fisher wood stoves released about 50 – 80 grams of smoke for every kilogram of wood that was burned. By closing steel chimney off and limiting release to only a small hole, 6 inches in diameter, the heat would be retained in the room. It’s very important to underline that the new clean burning Fisher stove released less than 6 grams of smoke on every 1 kilogram of wood that was burned. These new clean burning stoves are known as EPA outdoor wood stoves.

The fire could also be controlled more easily. In addition, these new wood stoves could easily be used for cooling. Fisher wood stoves were made from heavy steel plates ¼’ and 5/16′ thick. The doors were made of cast-iron. Bob Fisher gave the original names for the models of stoves. They were “Papa Bear,” “Momma Bear” and “Baby Bear.” Nowadays the stoves designed by Bob Fisher are manufactured no more. However, they are still sold as vintage goods and have become collectors’ items.
In the mid-1980s the old wood stoves were replaced by clean burning stoves.

As for the design, the design of the Fisher stove was based on observing how heat was lost from a wood burning fireplace. The Fisher wood stoves had a plume-pipe that extended from the top of the steel box structure and released the smoke outside. Older models had steel doors. Newer models had heat resistant glass doors to show the fire within.

Bellows for Wood Burning Stoves and Heaters




There are two types of fireplace bellows in those days.These include the single-acting piston bellows joint and the double-acting.The functions bellows by air in and expel the air in two separate and different movements of the handles.The double-acting piston bellows to allow air to be blown in two strokes of the bellows "handles.It is very important to stress that this brat to be stronger.

They provide more air than the traditional single piston bellows.Fireplace bellows consists of an air chamber and a valve (or nozzle.can) The air chamber is like an accordion design, to grow it and get flexible contract.Fireplace bellows two handles, which concluded when, strength, breathe in the Hall ", drawing air inside for storage.If the handles are pushed down, the air chamber forces the air through the nozzle.Air from the nozzle and onto a small fire or smoldering log to stoke the flames.

The handles are raised again and again and pushed the air is sucked in and pushed, so that for the regular features of the air.The wood burning heaters is a stove, the water-coated according to the following scheme works: the water that the oven is heated and pumped through the pipes, cover to heat the building.Heating is not the only function of the wood stove.To obey the wood stove for hot water in sufficient quantity to meet the needs of an entire house.
