🙂 I have visited many neighbor Amish and felt like this was a good adaptation. So thank you for confirming that this is not idiotic. It’s not attached to my house it’s basically in a field alone. Sure, I don’t want to burn it down but I also wasn’t looking for a huge $$ install.
I was mostly asking on the value of the firebricks and in observing how they are working so far I’m inclined to keep them in. The back of the stove is not radiating so intensely toward the poly and the bricks, and therefore the stove, stay warm all day long after I’ve let the fire go out due to the solar heat. That is maybe good too. We’ll see.
Thanks to all who offered advice.
