How it Works
The intake air is admitted through the holes in the crests of the corrugated front wall. This pro-
vides a cross draft, which makes the fuel burn only at the bottom of the firebox, or fuel load. As
the fuel burns, it’s being lowered from above into the burning area. This is how such long burn
times are accomplished. The heat output can be regulated from low to high; depending upon the
amount of air entering the stove.
The SEDORE stove will not produce creosote, unless operated with an internal stack temperature
below 300 F. Internal stack temperatures should not be confused with external. Typically the in-
ternal stack temperatures will be double the measurement taken with an external (magnetic) ther-
mometer.
The Sedore Stove is continuously conditioning the fuel load above the burning portion of the front
chamber, which will preheat and dry the fuel above, before it reaches the burning area.
The front and sides of the firebox do not need firebricks to prevent warping, because of the added
strength corrugations’, and 5/16th inch baffle plates provide. The corrugations also provide a
more efficient heat transfer, due to the increased surface area, and steel transfers heat much bet-
ter than firebrick, providing a more efficient and even transfer.
The top loading feature provides easier fuel loading, no stooping or bending, and access to the
firebox is visible, providing the ability to fill it completely, for extended burn times. There’s also no
coals or ashes to spill on the floor, when loading the fuel. To prevent smoke escaping when the
lid is opened, it’s recommended to only open the lid, when the stove needs more fuel.
