Question 1: Am I going to burn coal in my Buck Stove? Open your doors and measure the opening of the firebox:īefore you go any further, you need to ask yourself 2 questions. However neither of you know the exact Model.You know it's an older model with double doors. You know from the trusty bage on the front that it is a Buck Stove, or maybe the owner told you. Here is a list of what I have found out so far, and by all means if you have information that I do not have listed here please add it. All in one handy place with a title that should help those searching this forum in the future for the same questions that I had. So I thought to myself that I should make a post, here, about all that I have learned about the older Buck Stoves. Not only about my stove, but about the cost involved and the mistakes and misinformation that is out there. A few weeks have gone by and I have learned tons. Ask first, buy later.but I didn't want the deal to pass me by. Sure, it was a bit backwards as to how things should have gone. Then I came here and started asking questions. So I jumped at the deal I had found and bought it.

Turns out they can be used as free standing or as inserts. I came across an old Buck Stove, at a steal for just $200.I did an internet search and found not only this website and forum, but some decent information on the Buck stoves. After my wife and I received a $300+ power bill for the month of December, I started actively looking for a fireplace insert. Especially in my part of the country.(North Carolina) I knew that using a woodstove was going to give me the benefits of having a fire, without the heat loss of a chimney. Playing in the snow, and smelling the wood burning fireplaces is something that is disappearing these days. To me, it isn't fall/winter until I can smell a fire burning.
