<p>A wood-burning heating apparatus, used as a parlor stove and providing a significant heat output, is disclosed. The stove has primary and secondary combustion chambers and a baffle system for directing flue gases along a circuitous path from the secondary combustion chamber to an exit aperture whereby a significant proportion of the heat of said gases is given up to the apparatus. A vertically oriented downwardly directed baffle separates the combustion chambers. First and second air paths supply air to the primary and secondary combustion chambers respectively. The air provided by the supply conduits to the respective combustion chambers is preheated and the air provided through the second path promotes secondary combustion or the flue gases to thereby increase the overall efficiency of the stove.</p> |
