Pierce, H W

A cylindrical wood-burning firebox is surrounded by a cylindrical metal outer shell which together comprise a convection heater stove which fits into any of various sizes of fireplaces with the cylinder axes directed into the fireplace. Room air enters the lower front portion of the stove between the firebox and the outer shell, is drawn toward the rear of the heater stove, rises between the firebox and the outer shell as the air is heated by the firebox, and exits as hot air from the upper front of the stove between the firebox and the outer shell. The front face of the firebox is recessed relative to the outer shell. A coil through which a fluid can flow can be provided in the gap between the firebox and the outer shell, said coil having an axis also directed into the fireplace.
