I really don't have to justify anything to you sir. If you are not aware of the benefits of this technology I suggest you read up on it.

I have done a lot more than just read up on it, I specify it and use in it's appropriate application. A number of years ago, I also helped develop some of it's specific applications.

It would be better to design the fire pot, grates - anything in contact with the actual fire - out of cast iron, specifically ASTM A319. That would not be within the fabrication abilities of a local fabricator, unless you are lucky enough to have a guy capable of doing castings.

Dump the cast iron entirely for the fire pot & grates and go with a cast superalloy with a crucible ceramic liner.

And don't forget the thermal barrier coating on the firepot metal.

there will be a fair amount of old and new for everyone.

How about a coal range with a big firepot capable of 60-90k BTU & maybe that would be a big enough stove to utilize both of the materials that were being squabbled over earlier.

Hell, just put wheels on the thing so you could move it around the house and into the cooler rooms! Now there's an idea!

Coal range with side mounted water tank,most certainly.
