How to Choose the Correct Minimum Dimensions for Your Stove
With so many different stoves available, knowing exactly what to look for can be difficult. Before making your purchase, consider the layout of your home and how you intend to use your new stove to help determine what you'll need. We've prepared a breakdown of some key dimensions to help you make an informed choice.
- Minimum Stove Dimensions: The minimum stove dimensions are the smallest dimensions you would choose for your new stove. These are the overall dimensions of your stove, specifically the width, height, and depth.
- Minimum Firebox Dimensions: The firebox is your stove's combustion area, and the minimum dimensions are the smallest width, height, and depth you'd want for your new stove. Your stove's firebox size determines its capacity for solid fuel and the media options it can accommodate.
- Minimum Viewing Dimensions: Your stove's viewing dimensions determine how much of the combustion area is visible. If you want a stove with a viewing area, you'll only need to consider your desired width and height.
- Minimum BTU Capacity: Your stove's BTU capacity refers to its heat output. Before selecting your ideal BTU capacity, consider the application of your new stove to determine the minimum heating output you'll need.
With these key definitions broken down, you'll know how to choose the right stove for your home.
