Oh praise the Lord it wasn’t really a failure that could take days to fix. We used to use our oven for heat when the furnace was out. Now we are all electric though, but have 2 fireplaces and 2 kerosene heaters.

Used to have a wood stove, thinking about getting another one and an insert for one of the fireplaces.

I boiled big pots of water on the stove which warmed and moisturized the air. Then I kept pouring the boiling water down the drains to keep them from freezing.

There is NO plausible explanation for the switch turning itself off.

Could it be.....

Look at Lopi stoves and inserts.
It’s the best made brand.
