QR Code Link to This Post
This was purchased for a newer home and then never installed. The intention was to use it to replace a similar existing wood furnace but then it was decided to just leave the older one in-place.
It is still in the box and sitting on the original shipment pallet. It also has always been stored in an indoor heated garage. Originally paid just over $4,000 for this.
The Fire Chief FC1000E is a 2020 EPA-certified indoor wood-burning furnace designed to heat up to 2,000–2,500 square feet with a maximum output of 198,000 BTUs. This unit features Clean Burn Technology, a 3.4–4.0 cu. ft. firebox accommodating 20-inch logs, and a 1,500–1,800 CFM blower for whole-home circulation.
