Description of Case Study: Most of these systems were installed by staff at Falls Brook or as part of a demonstration/workshop.

This stove serves as the primary heating source for both space heating and for water heating, as well as for cooking. The stove had fittings for heating water as a built in feature. The water is heated in the stove and rises naturally through heat siphoning to the water storage tank on the second floor.
