Significantly slashing utility bills is one of the many reasons homeowners purchase a Masonry Heater. A family of five in Southwest Washington heats their entire 2,000 sq. ft. home and also heats their water with the fireplace - and spends just $70-80 on their monthly electric bill!
These high efficiency fireplaces consume much less cordwood in one heating season than a woodstove, and produce a short, yet powerful 1700 degree burn that significantly reduces emissions. The Masonry Heater begins emitting a slow, even radiant heat, lasting up to 24 hours after all combustion is complete.
