Conversion Video 41: Tiny Wood Stove Install
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 апр 2019
- This stove from Tiny Wood Stove totally changed my mind about the practicality of having a wood stove in the bus. Originally, I didn't want a wood stove because it would take up too much space. However, when I found the Dwarf 3kw Lite, which has a footprint the size of a piece of standard printer paper, I was sold.

Right on brother, I’m building a 136 2500 Promaster camper van. Great vid, I just decided to instal one of these. I’m 5 mins from red rocks. I owe you a pint or 3.
I prefer this stove over a diesel and propane heater. Thanks!
Super grateful for your detail in this! I have been using it for reference on my own fireplace install for my van conversion and so far you've got me totally ready!! Just need to mount my fireplace to my stone now and cut my hole out.
Thank you for sharing.
Bravo.
Greetings from France (Europe).
Great video, thanks for showing me how to install my Tiny Wood Stove. I also got their direct air intake part, so it pulls air from outside. The granite inlay looks nice!
Thank for sharing! I’m wanting to install a wood stove and learning all of I can. You video is the best one I’ve seen so far on the topic!
Nice job, looks great! 🙏🏻❤️✌️🌎
Nice video, very helpful. Thanks!
20 /20 hind sight..drill holes in granite outside with a trickling of water, to keep granite cool...GREAT INSTALL.💪👍
Great job with the stove !
Your live edge is amazing, looks like a Rolling Stones kinda tongue on backsplash.
Nicely done. I love my dwarf 4k in my shorty conversion.
Very nice! You do good work!
I love this! I’ve been dreaming of converting a van, but now I think a bus would be more my style. This was so in-depth. Of course I had to subscribe. All the best to you!
Great job!
Awesome work dude.
Nice work hope that set up works well for you guys now I need to get mine
Wow this is awesome! I love it. :)
I like that..... You did a great job...
I don't think you needed to install that many screws on the flue flange bracket. A couple of screws on each side should of done the trick. The less screws the better when it comes to roof mountings and possible future leaks. Looks like a great job though. I am going to install the same size wood stove in my RV but I am going to use heat shield mounted directly to the wood stove on the rear and sides rather than the wall. I will use 1/8th sheet metal painted black and mount it with about 1" clearance. I am thinking about venting it out a small side window rather than going through the roof since my RV is stationary and if I have to move the RV I can easily remove the flue. I like that granite hearth.
It would have been cool to have the stone as the back heat guard too. Excellent job anyhow!
💕 we've been looking for the right one and we love this one especially since we saw that you showed ever step 💕 lots of love to the two of you you probably won't see this question but if by chance you do about how long does it put out heat ( like in hours) until you have to put more wood to get heat again? But we both thank you because do far y'all have been the only ones that showed everything ☮️ 🚌
Awesome vid, looking at doing this as well.
I don't like to give any kind of negative feedback when people do awesome job like this but...
You should put your stove on or near the floor. Cold drops down..that is where your heat should start.
And why waste counter top space, especially such a nice countertop.
The good thing is your counter top will still be awesome with that piece of granit in it.
I believe the knob at the tip is your damper, it regulates how fast your wood burns.
oops cut the countertop tooo thin, stove is going to tip over and fall.
I dig the wee stove , but that wooden bunker you have the stove on looks like it's been weakened by cutting into it for that black bace. The weight of the stove will be to heavy for the wooden bunker now it's been redused in thickness. If it breaks while the stove is in operation, it doesn't bare thinking about. Apart from that I like what you done.
Cool👍
Get a little pan baking pan to use as an ash pan to keep the counter clean. William
Does the top setting have to do with secondary combustion?
As for the long burning time, have you tried using wood pellets or sawdust in a very vitrified box that fills the stove to the brim?
I wish someone would upload a vid of them burning coal in these
To each his own, but I would prefer designing the sitting area around a floor mounted fireplace, so the light from the flame can be seen directly and the heat is projected from floor lvl. This maximizes the positive psychological effects of the flame and the practical use of the heat.
So it’s a double wall pipe thru the roof and the hole is that snug against the pipe? Are you sure that’s safe? I just installed my stove and it’s triple walled thru the ceiling but the company recommended leaving 2 inches extra space around the pipe
you are correct, double wall setback is two inches.
I wondered the same thing, and I don't want to burn down, so I called the company before I installed it this way. They verified that it was correct. Their included hardware would not cover a hole with a 2 inch setback. There is fireproof insulation that you can stuff around the hole, if it is a major concern. I have had probably around 50 burns in the stove since install, and no problems. I try to keep the magnetic thermometer in the sweet spot.
That said, if you can do a 2 inch setback with your hardware, that sounds like a good idea. Any extra precautions that can improve safety are worth doing, for peace of mind.
@@DIYSkoolie what sort of fireproof insulation and where is that sweet spot of the thermometer? 👀✍🏼
@@onceinawhile7 I posted something here, which is what I was thinking of, but then I found something better. I was thinking of a fireproof rope that you put in the wall around the stove pipe. I saw somebody else do that. BUT, this is the insulation that you would find in something like a residential stove, and it can be cut to size: amzn.to/3jq0AW6 I would put this around the stove pipe hole. The sweet spot for the thermometer is high on the side. It comes with the convection fan that I bought. I couldn't find the exact one that I bought, but here's a similar one with good reviews: amzn.to/2Oh8V31 This one actually looks like an improved version of mine.
@@DIYSkoolie thanks for the info man
How is the heat on the ceiling directly above the stove? We have found that our ceiling gets alarming hot.
Thanks for the video. Someone recently gave us a huge stove for our bus, it takes two to lift. After seeing your mini one, I'm wondering if ours will make the bus too hot.
For what it's worth, this one feels like the perfect size for our space.
@@DIYSkoolie is it the 3KW size?
@@joebuck4496 Yes, the old version.
Just use screws, that gasket sealant just makes more work if you take apart for cleaning
The bolts would be better off dropping in from the top and then the nuts and washers are underneath. It's a much cleaner way to do it.
Trim would fill gaps - and I’m not a professional woodworker - but I wonder is wood dust left over from routing could be fixed with wood glue, then poured into the gaps. . . . . not sure if it would cure nicely.
Whats the circular flashing on the chimney for?
Cut with a sharp exacto knife as deep and close as you can.... When you get close to with power tool or chisel the wood will just chip away you can get to the millimetre fit with it this trick
Hey use your ashes for me to clean the glass take water and some of the ashes mix it together put it on there and wipe it off
The top air vent isn’t an air vent it is the equivalent to having a chimney flue Damper. Which means it restricts the exhaust egress.
I would never have set that granite into that gorgeous countertop.
Cyndi but if not, beautiful countertop would catch fire...
Me either you could have hung metal bracket in front of window to put it
It was a tough decision, but there is plenty of other pretty countertop to admire. Also, the hearth has the added bonus of acting as a coaster for hot drinks, so it protects the countertop!
Damn, I like the stove, but $625? You can buy one for half that on Etsy
Why run insulated pipe all the way down to the stove? Arent you losing out on the heat that would radiate from a straight pipe?
You are right. I also lose heat because it is mounted so high off the ground, and heat rises. However, for such a small space, it radiates plenty of heat to keep us warm. It often needs to be turned down after a while, because it gets too hot. I use the convection fan and some electric fans to circulate the heat better.
Yes a bend does slow the heat loss up the flue... but... as the heat cool some of you particulates will fall out up suspension. In time they will block you pipe. So you will have to every year take it apart and knock out the build up and reassemble.
Your drill was fine for a small job. But when you drill through things like granite, stone, and metal, you would be wise to consider a larger drill.
A hammer drill is typically what is used with the masonry bits
What kinda burn times are you getting?
10:54 Stove Pipe install begins here
Were can I get one
Why put a fireplace next to the ceiling?
We are considering this stove for our 26 foot motorhome. How do you like it...a year later? Does it provide sufficient heat in the winter?
We love it! It does provide all the heat we need to warm the bus. We still have propane heaters, though, to provide heat throughout the night, if it's cold. The stove needs to be fed every hour or two. You can go longer, if you stuff it well, and manage the burn rate, though. Once you get used to it, it's simple. It's probably.our favorite feature of the bus.
@@DIYSkoolie what are the low temps you've had it in and do you think it would be sufficient for us? Or would we need the 4kw? If you pop on our channel at the last video we put up you can see the lay out of our motorhome. I think the 3 kw would be ok but not sure. The 4 kw wouldn't run all night either right? This is soooo confusing. I'm just afraid the 4 kw would be too much heat. I need help lol (Emilie)
@@OurPOVThatsItThatsAll The lowest temp we've had it in was 11F, and it was still toasty inside. Our bus is 225 square feet. I think you'll have a tough time finding any wood stove that will stay lit all night long. I picked the 3kw because it takes up so little space. If you have room for the 4kw, go for the upgrade. At the very least, it will make it easier to cut wood pieces that fit in it. Tiny stoves take tiny pieces of wood. Also, sorry to hear about your dog. You can control the burn rate and temp with the dampers. I can only assume the 4kw gives you more control over this.
@@DIYSkoolie wow 11 degrees!!! And it was still nice inside?! That's awesome. I think we should be ok with the 3kw if that's the case. This was a big help. Thank you. And yeah, our baby is gone now but we'll make sure our other baby is spoiled twice as much. She's sad and confused but we are hoping that goes away sooner rather than later. Thanks so much again. ❤️

Thank you for the video. I had to stop watching however because the camera was moving too much too quickly and I was getting sea sick.
Nice job but how are you going to clean the chimney now it’s sealed like that
Through the chimney cap. Take the cap off, scrub up and down the sides with a chimney brush, collect the creosote inside the stove, vacuum and...voila!
@@deirdre444 Exactly. And I do that pretty regularly.
Is there a possibility that the granite slab could crack under heat? I would have used a ceramic with high heat resistance.
So far, it has been fine. It doesn't get too hot, in general. No cracks so far from heat stress or road vibration.
Great video man. And great work...
*BUT DAMN* $600 FOR THAT STOVE?? There are comparable stoves out there for half that!
No. There sure ain't.
Where? Can you give us names of the companies?
Thank you
You could buy cheap crap stoves from China granted, but I would definitely pay more for quality and piece of mind. After all it's more likely it's better made and will last longer, never mind all the safety tests it definitely would have had. $600 is about £450 and that is the going rate for one of those here , for the cheapest one.
@@judichristopher4604 The woodsman stove is handmade by a guy and welded. Now keep in mind over the last 2 years his prices have gone up since I posted that comment due to inflation and the price of steel, but it's still cheaper even today
13:20 DUDE wipe that black stuff on your leg... Shesh !!
black silicone
Heat rises. Heaters should be mounted on the floor.
True. But this is such a small space, it can turn it into a sauna. I use fans to help circulate the heat, too.
why not just use the saw dust from routing to fill the gaps?
Its 700$ now lol
very cool, I mean hot, I hope
Small world….Kemper
I’m about to buy one of these, I have not decided on the size yet. After over 2 years, how do you like it? Do you wish to have gotten one a little bigger? My rv is only 22’ so I think this would be perfect but I almost want the 4k. Anyone else has experience to share please? Thx!
Very sloppy. Not flat with counter top and gaps. I would be very annoyed. Their was no need to counter sink that hearth.
I guess it's a good thing you don't live there
@@janetlee191 good thing as it would bug the hell out of me every time I spotted the bodged diy job
Sorry but it seems as if you’re too close to the ceiling.
The stove is way too close to the wooden ceiling
You need to read a book on what a router does because you sure dont know how to use it
You just ruined the look of your beautiful kitchencounter
Everything I've read says you need a min 4' flue.
