Very nice. Great ending/credits. 👍

Nice work!

Thanks Ronyon.I live in Québec and get the brick from a masonry yard called Réfrabec, in Varennes, for $80 CAD for a box of 24. Five pounds of pellets fill the hopper to the level you see on the video. This will give you about an hour and a quarter burn. The stove gets very hot very quickly; 20 minutes after startup, there's a round spot about 10 inches accross that glows red on top of the tank. With the hopper filled right up you get about 2 hours, but it gets too hot in the house.As you can see though, at this point the hot combustion gases are all being evacuated through the chimney, so it also cools down rather quickly. This Fall, I plan to build a masonry mass to capture and store most of that heat for overnight release into the house. It will be a side-by-side brick double bell, in the form of a wall 7' tall, 5' wide and 11.5" deep with a 7" deep chamber inside. Do you have a rocket stove, or plan to get one?

In addition to a mass thermal battery I'd add a gate/screen, or mechanism to funnel less pellets? great, neat design though. I'll checkout the Quebec bricks, thank you

Au bout d'un moment sa prend pas feu dans le reservoir a pallet

Nicely done,the build and the video.How long does it burn for when full?Where did you get your bricks?

Thank you Charles.

I like the feed for the wood pellets

How does a bag cost now? How long does it last? Do you have plans or a demo for your stove? Can you take the barrel apart for cleaning? How often?

nice it's -40 actuelly i ''ll be happy to have this heater!! +++

Can we get an update video on how well it's lasted over the last 2 seasons?

I buy out dated hand sanitizer gel from bargain stores. It's same stuff as pellet gel , I get 6 60 oz squirt bottles for 2.50 . Works great. Couple squirts , light it and done.

what is the risk of "burn-back" i.e. up the pellet feed tube if primary draft fails?

Is that an ild compressor tank? Propane tank?

Hello Mr. Jeanlou, i would like to get the plans, its very interesting.

Nice . Trying to determine design , and understand how the smoke gets sucked out of the stainless pipe going through old stove etc ?

very cool

Madd Macc wrote to ask about the foil material around the pellet basket. That material is aluminum sheet, thicker and stiffer than kitchen foil wrap. You can get it for free at printing shops; they are actually used and discarded 22"x36" offset printing plates that the shop owner gave me, a big pile of them weighing over a hundred pounds. What Is showing around the stainless steel wire basket is the back side of the plate. When the camera looks down into the basket, you can actually see the printing side with the words and images etched on to pick up the ink that will then be transfered to the paper to be printed. You can do all kinds of neat things with those plates. The metal decoration of catalpa leaves that you see hanging on the chimney at the start of the video is made from the same material. It's easy to cut with ordinary scissors, and you can just as easily use a spoon or even the tip of a ballpoint pen to shape, scribe and emboss it to create any shape you like. Great stuff!

Thank you for another idea for thoughtful recycling. Richard

Very nice will you help build one like yours.

How about adding an external air input feeder pipe, so that the stove is fed air from outside the building.

Yes, outside air is in the plans for the coming heating season, along with a much better pellet basket design, a used-cooking-oil burner, a double bell firebrick heat storage device and a few other smaller tweaks. Not sure how many of these improvements I can actually get done this Fall, but I'll give it the old college try. I'll keep video updating the changes as I go. What kind of rocket are you planning to build and for what kind of use? By the way, weight is not really an issue here. The brick I used in this case is Lynn's G23, a lightweight insulating firebrick rated for 2300°F in direct flame contact, that weighs just over a pound per brick. The whole firebox brickwork only weighs 18 pounds, compared to 170 pounds when I used regular 9.3-pound regular firebrick in my previous prototype.

nice house and nice view. :))

Do you have any drawings on the burner I would like to build one

the funny thing is I've been checking all these videos out and this is all the same design that they've been using in China for many many years

Can you make me one for Christmas?

Отлично!

Liked everything except the aluminium (?) ducting used as chimney pipe. A cap on the pellet feed tube would decease chances of pellets burning up the tube .

I am still struggling with air inlet from outside the room. And the lady is not amused by the looks of my welded rocket burner. 😊

Take a look here it’s in Romanian but if you search his videos and combine zero fuels with him you’ll get a better rocket heater

and not a word was spoken.......

It's minimalist, isn't it? I kind of like it. The creator +Jeanlou is very good with replying in detail to comments.

astucieux , mais alors pas très décoratif dans un salon !!!!
