A rocket mass heater is an earthen masonry heating system that can provide clean, safe and efficient warmth for your home, while using 70-90% less fuel and emitting less smoke than a traditional woodstove. Build one of these unique and beautiful installations and dramatically reduce your energy costs, provide luxurious comfort year-round and enhance the beauty, value and comfort of your home. In cold weather a few hours of clean, hot burning can provide 20 or more hours of steady warmth due to the unit's large thermal mass acting as a heat store. Packed with hard-to-find information, The Rocket Mass Heater Builder's Guide includes: Comprehensive design, construction and installation instructions combined with detailed maintenance and troubleshooting advice; Brick-by-brick layouts, diagrams, and architectural plans augmented by detailed parts drawings and photographs for clarity; Relevant and up-to-date code information and standards to help you navigate the approval process with local building departments; Earthen masonry heating systems are well-suited for natural and conventional builders alike; Adaptable designs for cosy seating, heated floors, beds, greenhouses and more!
