Accessory Recommendations

For added cooking utility, we recommend the Large Water Tank and the 3.5” Pipe Oven. The water tank is excellent for melting snow and ice for drinking water, and when the stove is burning efficiently the tank will boil water in minutes thanks to its location at the back of the cooktop and the base of the flue pipe where heat is concentrated. The 3.5” Pipe Oven is large enough to cook biscuits, cookies, baked potatoes, and more. Using a large skillet or dutch oven on the cooktop in conjunction with the Pipe Oven provides a very functional camp kitchen set up.

Installation Recommendations

When utilizing a wood stove in a tent or shelter, it is of utmost importance to prioritize safety by maintaining adequate clearances. We strongly advise keeping a minimum distance of 18 inches between the stove and any combustible materials. However, if you employ a non-combustible heat shield or fireproof hearth, these clearances can be reduced by half.

To ensure safe installation, we highly recommend the use of a Double Wall Pipe Section and a Flashing Kit where the flue exits the tent or shelter. It is crucial to have a fireproof stove jack for the flue to pass through, and always make sure that combustible materials are kept clear of the stove or flue.

In situations where the shelter may experience movement, such as in a trailer or boat, it is particularly critical to secure the stove legs using tent stakes, bolts, or other adequate anchors. This precautionary measure helps prevent the stove from tipping over and causing potential accidents or damage.

By adhering to these safety guidelines, you can minimize the risk of fire hazards and ensure a secure environment while using a wood stove in your tent or shelter. Remember, safety should always be the top priority when operating heating appliances in confined spaces.

Operating Tips

Mastering the art of operating a wood stove is like learning to salsa dance - it takes some patience, practice, and a little bit of heat. Kick-start your fire with a hot bed of coals, as this boosts the air draw through the stove and up the flue. Begin your fiery masterpiece with a generous pile of small tinder, then gradually introduce larger wood pieces. Remember, when opening the door, do it slowly to keep the smoke inside the stove and out of your cozy shelter.

Starting your fire with flammable accelerates like lighter fluid is a big no-no. Practice makes perfect, so we strongly suggest you test drive your stove outdoors for the first few burns. This way, you'll be able to finesse your fire-starting skills and learn how to use the airflow controls to get the perfect burn temperature and rate.

An efficient stove is like a stealthy ninja, burning hot enough to use the fuel effectively and producing little to no visible smoke. If your chimney is puffing out thick smoke like a steam train, your stove isn't burning efficiently. Don't overload the stove with fuel, either – too much heat can warp or damage your trusty stove. So, take it slow, and you'll be a wood stove whiz in no time!

Warning & Considerations

Never leave a wood stove burning unattended. The surface of Winnerwell Wood Stoves become extremely hot during use, always wear leather gloves and exercise caution when operating the wood stove. Careful supervision of children and pets is mandatory when operating the wood stove to prevent harm or injury. When children or pets are present, we strongly recommend the use of fence panels or a stove guard to prevent unintentional contact with the stove. Only burn clean, dry, seasoned firewood in Winnerwell Wood Stoves. Burning green wood can result in carbon monoxide which is hazardous to health as well as increase the build up of creosote in the flue pipe which can create the risk of chimney fire. Clean the flue regularly (approx. every 20 hours of burn time) to avoid excessive creosote build up which can inhibit airflow and create the risk of chimney fire. We recommend a Winnerwell Pipe Brush for cleaning the flue. User assumes responsibility for the safe use of this wood stove.
