I need to heat a 1500 sq foot mobile with 8 rooms and be able to cook for my family - what wood-burning stove would you recommend?
1 Answer
None of our wood stoves are designed to serve as a dedicated cook top. We can offer recommendations for heating the space, and we can point you toward one on which you can do some cooking, but we do not have one designed for this purpose.

This means that the manufacturer of the stove has approved the unit to be installed in a mobile or manufactured home. Please bear in mind, however, that you will want to speak with your local code enforcement before any installation.
What is the difference between a stove for a home and a stove for a mobile home?
1 Answer
Mobile Home-Approved stoves are units that have specifically been tested and listed for use in such an application; this requires the addition of an outside air kit and the unit must be secured to the chassis of the home. You can find the appropriate outside air kits in the "Accessories" tabs on each stove's item page.
What do I need to fully install a wood stove in a mobile home?
1 Answer
When installing a wood stove into a mobile home, the following criteria must be met:
1. The stove must be specifically listed by the manufacturer for use in a mobile home.
2. Your local code enforcement agency must allow installation of a wood stove into mobile homes.
3. Outside combustion air must be provided to the stove. This must be by means of a sealed duct from the outside wall or crawlspace, directly to the back of the wood stove.
4. The stove must be anchored to the chassis of the mobile home. This is to prevent movement if the mobile home is relocated.
5. The stove must be electrically grounded to the chassis. This is to prevent damage, should lightning strike the metal chimney.
