Perhaps I should have clarified...

That enameled box, or cabinet, is of different design. I was inquiring of how air flow might move through it.

That said, I wonder if there's a difference between simple enamel paint and porcelainized enamel? The latter of which is on many stoves...and with age tends to crack, pop, and chip. A once beautiful stove becomes an eye-sore...at least to me. I'm for simple hi-heat paint...which fades, but can be made to look like new with little effort.

While we are on a roll here, a simple but clear youtube video of walking around the different models stoves showing the functions and details would even be better than the pictures. But we've came a long ways in a day! New eye candy is always good, and with the new picture viewer these and all pics are nice.

I have the EZ 50 model of this stove. Mine is a little older. I've had it since 05. Really same design as the Hitzer hopper stove. The only big difference in mine was no fan option.
Also, the newer models with the reburn system made a HUGE difference in coal consumption.

For the EZ-50, there are 2 grates. Each weighs in at 12.9 pounds. Plus the the grate divider.

The D.S. Comfortmax video detailing that stove is a great example of the information the folks here like to see. There’s another on there Anthramax coal stove as well that’s another good example of a good video.

Something like that likely clearly takes some preparation, video skills, and time. We are patient though. :lol:

So it appears they claim it burns roughly a # an hour and was compared as similar to the 50-93 by some one who owns the 50 model. Dr. Fred, analysis please.
