Stove top heat storage blocks for room transfer
Peterliv72 replied to Peterliv72's topic in Log burning stoves and fireplaces
Thanks for the replies and thoughts. I was only thinking a single block per other room which might be enough to take the edge off the cold. So no envisaging a lot of lifting. Coupled perhaps with a flower pot tea light heater! I've got a stove top fan - fine for dispersing heat in the room it it just doesn't get out of the room. I think I would need a fan in the door recess. Its an old house with high celings solid walls and big rooms. We have 2 stoves at either end of house in public rooms so the blocks would be for bedrooms which wouldn't need to be that warm. -
At a time when we are all looking at reducing heating costs what about this idea. I have read a lot on forums about the use of heat storage bricks or blocks placed on top of stoves which retain the heat and radiate it out once fire dies. But why not transfer that block to another room to heat that. Placed in a heat resistant container with a metal grate over it for protection. Any thoughts?
