Title: OWB Without A Insulated Front Loading Door???
Post by: victor6deep on December 17, 2012, 03:28:36 PM

Why do some not come with some sort of insulated door? And why the heck wouldn't they insulate a loading door? Can't believe it

Most are insulated, just to keep the, from warping, some use cast, it won't warp and don't have to be insulated. 

It's my opinion that a well insulated door is important, based more on appearance and condensation problems, as well as some efficiency

My previous stove had an uninsulated door. I burnt the P_ss out of myself early this year not
paying attention while loading the stove.
