Wood Stove Accessories

Wood stoves are specially designed stoves that use wood as the source of fuel for combustion and heating. Many varieties of wood stoves are available in the market, which differ in their mode of operation, type of fuel used, brand, the heating capacity, and the type of materials used in their manufacture.

A standard wood stove can have a lot of accessories that can be purchased separately and are normally not supplied by the manufacturer with the product. The most common accessory available is the kettle, which is used for making tea and coffee or heating water on the wood stove. These kettles are available in many different types and materials. The next type of accessory is the stove door that can be fitted as per the need and preference of the user. Generally, glass panels are used for front doors.

The freestanding wood stoves can be fitted with legs of different shapes, sizes and material. This adds a personal touch to the customers' wood stove as they can use the leg piece of their choice. Another important accessory of a wood stove is the ash drawer, which collects the ash produced by the burning wood. It is advisable to select an ash drawer that is sufficiently large so that it does not need frequent cleaning.

Other important accessory used with wood stoves is the soapstone steamer. This is a high-density soapstone that limits the transfer of heat from the stove. It is kept on top of the stove and humidifies the place where the stove is operating because stoves have a tendency to absorb all the moisture in the room. Some customers use a self-powered stove fan, especially in winter, to evenly distribute warm air in the house. Customers can also use their wood stove as a heating device for the entire house with the help of this stove fan.

These wood stove accessories beautifully compliment any kind of wood stove. They are available in local hardware stores or on online shopping sites.
