The Kimberly™ Wood Stove
The Best Tiny Wood Stove To Heat Your Cabin, RV, Tiny House, Skoolie, Or Boat…
BIG HEAT FROM THIS TINY INDOOR WOOD BURNING STOVE
When Longer Burn Times and Closer Clearances Are Essential
- When you’re trying to heat a small space, most wood stoves don’t cut it. They’re big and heavy. They kick out way too much heat. They take up way too much floor space. Most were not designed as small wood stoves for cabins, as mini wood stoves for RV use, or as a tiny house wood stove. Most manufacturers of a tiny wood stove have never had their stove EPA/CSA Certified and UL-listed to residential standards. We did.
- Like many other great products, our Kimberly™ tiny wood stove had an accidental beginning. The wood stove shop which Roger Lehet has successfully owned and operated for 25 years was a casualty of The Great Recession. Unable to pay the rent, the Lehet family moved onto a boat moored off the coast of an island in Puget Sound near Seattle. Roger found that no manufacturer made a tiny wood stove that could fit into his tiny space, so he cobbled together his mini wood stove prototypes, learning as he went.
- Roger’s tiny house on the water required a nearly smokeless wood stove to remain in the marina. There was little room to store wood in the cabin, so his tiny wood stove needed to have a dainty appetite. A good night’s sleep required a longer burn time. So, Roger designed a two-stage combustion chamber to squeeze more heat from less wood and extend the burn time, much like a time-release pill extends the release of the active ingredient.
AN ULTRA-EFFICIENT & CLEAN TINY WOOD STOVE
- Our Kimberly™ wood stove uses a 2-stage gasifier combustion system. In the first combustion, oxygen is restricted so that the wood is vaporized to wood gas {i.e.smoke}. The smoke is then re-burned as fuel to create heat in a second combustion before the smoke exits the stove. When burning wood that is 20% moisture content or less, Kimberly’s chimney goes virtually smokeless.
- The Kimberly™ stove has earned a reputation as the best wood stove for a tiny house, the best RV wood stove, and the best marine wood stove, due to Kimberly’s long burn times, clean chimney, and tight 6-inch side clearances. Our tiny wood stove has appeared on TV in Tiny House Nation, Treehouse Masters, and was selected to compete in the first ever international Wood Stove Design Competition in Washington, D.C.
- Kimberly™ can heat from 150 square feet up to 1,500 square feet, with a burn time of up to 8 hours {embers to embers}. You control the amount of heat produced by the size of your fuel load, how often you load the stove, and the species of wood that you burn. Kimberly™ is portable and weighs only 56 pounds. There are no moving parts or electrical components to fail,
- Like our bigger gasifier wood stoves, Katydid™ and Krikit™, our Kimberly™ mini wood stove squeezes more heat from less wood. Our patented gasification technology wastes less heat up the chimney, so more heat remains in your home. The proof is in Kimberly’s lower flue temperatures and unique UL-approved venting system.
- If you’re shopping for a tiny house wood burning stove, or RV stoves for sale, rest assured that our Kimberly™ has withstood the test of time since 2012. Never content to rest on our laurels, our new and improved Kimberly™ 2.0 is now available for sale for an even better performance.
