King wood and coal stove. Discussion in 'Firewood, Heating and Wood Burning Equipment' started by Lumberzack, Sep 6. I have the King Wood/Coal circulator. Detalles constructivos de puertas y ventanas en autocad gratis.

Question: My husband and I moved into this lovely country house this summer. The house is about 8 years old, all electric, and is heated with a heat pump (not my favorite heater) and a woodburning stove. There are 2 information plates on this stove. One says that it is a King, with the numbers 006474 in the corner (which I'm guessing is the model number). The other plate is located inside the door and says to remove ashes daily. I opened up the stove and found that the ash box was so full of ashes that I had to scoop them out with a large spoon before I could remove the box, and then there was almost another ash box full of ashes that dropped down from the wood chamber.

At least the ashes were all cold. Am I justifiably upset? Isn't this a fire hazard?? (webmasters note--always use a metal ash container with a lid) I'll be shopping via the phone tomorrow to find a retailer for 'King' woodburners so I can get a manual (the previous owners didn't leave it), Well, I cleaned all the ashes out of the stove. My other question is, what can one do with all those ashes? When we lived in the city, we sometimes put them in the flower bed, but mostly they went into the trash. However, now that we will have a LOT of ashes, I'm wondering if there isn't somewhere more appropriate to put them.

Answer: They let the ashes build up way too high. I don't think it would cause an immediate fire, but it can lead to other problems like premature burnout of the grates and other firebox parts. If those parts are in fairly good shape, then probably no harm done. Wood ashes are great for a garden since they contain lots of potash!
