Fit to your stove
Therma-coil fits most woodstoves. Climates that use woodstoves all the time throughout long winters will
see more hot water produceded in a Therma-coil than milder areas with intermittent stove use. Measure the inside of the stove to determine if the coil will fit, remembering that the Therma-coil
is 16" long inside the stove with an additional 5" threaded nipple length that exit through the stove wall (overall length is 21").
We also make custom length coils. Most custom sizes are at no additional cost. Email us for a quote on a custom
length coil. info@therma-coil.com
Placement
The coil can be placed inside the firebox
vertically along the side or the rear of the stove exiting out the rear or side stove wall. However, this usually takes up
firebox space, can get covered with ashes that are pushed up and reduce performance, and is more prone to being hit with logs.
When possible, it is recommended the coil be placed high inside the stove, horizontally under the griddle and out of the way of
logs. Therma-coil will capture some of the heat escaping up the flue in this location. Increasing the amount
of hot-water at a later date can be accomplished by adding another Therma-coil and plumbing it in series with
the first one. In most cases, the heat needed for domestic water heating will not affect the burn characteristics of the stove.
