A stove for burning fuel to produce heat, said stove comprising:
- a housing;
- a combustion chamber removably combined with the housing and adapted to receive and burn fuel therein;
- a drying chamber removably combined with the housing wherein the drying chamber is in communication with the combustion chamber so that heat from the combustion chamber is transferred into the drying chamber to dry the fuel in the drying chamber before it is burned in the combustion chamber.
A stove for burning fuel to produce heat, said stove comprising:
- a housing;
- a combustion chamber combined with the housing and adapted to receive and burn fuel therein;
