We are very excited to be offering an Introduction to Masonry Heaters Online Webinar through the North House Folk School in Grand Marais MN.

Masonry heaters originated in Northern Europe where winters were cold and fuel wasn’t always plentiful. The natural response? Create a wood-fired presence that was at once incredibly efficient and highly attractive, capable of generating abundant heat, and ideal for cooking/baking. Masonry heaters are built with fire bricks and utilize their high mass to radiate heat for 12-24 hours, a feature that means they only need to be fired once or twice per day. Pretty ideal, right? Get an introduction to masonry heaters in this webinar, including an overview of different types of masonry heating systems, from DIY kits to the custom heaters built by professionals. The instructor will also cover a variety of design and finish options. If you’ve ever thought about making this investment in your home, this is a great way to learn more about these marvels of traditional and modern technologies.
