[Greenbuilding] new stove

[Clarke Olsen]

Efficiency  cannot be achieved without separating heat extraction  
from combustion. I once had a fireplace grate
consisting of similar steel tubes curving around the fire. A small  
fan would blow air through them: turning it on
would suck so much heat out of the fire as to almost put it out!  
Later, I built a wood furnace with a water jacket
in the firebox: it was a magnificent creosote condenser. Introducing  
a baffle isolating the firebox was the
needed improvement.
