A stove comprises a firebox formed of two U-shaped interfitting members of steel plate and a U-shapted one piece base. Dual primary and secondary draft air channels extend along the bottom of the firebox from front to back immediately underneath the fire and upwardly at the rear of the firebox. A first or larger channel provides primary combustion air to the fire and the second channel extends farther upwardly to the region where volatile gases would enter the flue to secure more complete combustion thereof. The dual draft channels are controlled by an automatic draft device at the front of the stove through which the draft air is introduced. A heat shield at the rear of the stove cooperates with the one piece base for delivering heated air forwardly to the living area in front of the stove.

A stove adapted for location in spaced relation to a wall of a room, said stove comprising: a metal firebox comprising spaced metal side walls, a top, and a bottom wall forming a substantially closed enclosure for supporting fuel therewithin above the bottom wall of said firebox, a flue connection opening for removing flue gases from said firebox, a door providing access to said firebox for the deposition of fuel therewithin, and base means for supporting said firebox, said firebox including a first U-shaped member and a second U-shaped member, wherein said U-shaped members are joined in inverted ninety degree relationship such that one member forms a closure with the other to provide said firebox, wherein said first U-shaped member forms the side walls including the front of said stove, said front having a door opening provided with said door, and said second U-shaped member forms the top, bottom wall and rear wall of said stove, said base means extending downwardly from the bottom wall of the second U-shaped member of said firebox, further including a first air duct extending along the bottom wall of said second member from a first end in communication with an opening in the front of said first U-shaped member for receiving draft air and upwardly adjacent the rear wall of said second member to a second end horizontamly adjacent the position of the fire in said firebox, said first duct being closed except for a first opening on the first end thereof extending through said front of said first member and a second opening at said second end for providing draft air to the fire in said firebox, a second air duct extending along the bottom wall of said second member from a first end in communication with an opening in the front of said first member and upwardly adjacent the rear wall of said second member to a second end above the level of the fire in said firebox, said second duct being closed except for an opening at the first end thereof extending through said front of said first member for receiving draft air and a second opening at the second end thereof for providing secondary air for combustion of volatile gases above the location of a fire in said firebox, and a damper adjacent the first ends of said first duct and said second duct for regulating the flow of draft air therethrough.
