A heating device is described which consists of: a forced air stove adapted to burn solid fuel; the stove being at least partially made of a double-wall construction forming an air space so that air may be forced along the hot portions of the stove; a metal box defining a partial parallel piped shaped enclosure, the front of the box being open for receiving the stove, with the front of the stove substantially filling the front open space of the box; the top of the box having a hole therein for venting smoke and gases from the stove; a layer of thermal insulation attached to and covering substantially the entire inside surface of the box; the stove being removably positioned within the box so as to leave a second air space at least between the thermal insulation on the respective side, top and rear walls of the box, and the outer side, top and rear walls of the stove, there being no substantial heat conducting connecting elements between the insulation and the walls of the stove.
