With new efficiency standards you get more heat from less firewood. You can get the same heat output with a few modest sized logs compared to fueling a hungry old, inefficient wood burning stove with the Osburn 1700 Insert.

Osburn Stoves and inserts are the premium stove line for one of the largest wood stove manufacturer's in North America. Here are some of the features that sets Osburn apart from other stove manufacturers:

  • Kiln Fired Clay Firebrick- Which hold up longer than pumice bricks to keep the inside of the stove hotter and burn the wood more completely.
  • Stainless Steel Secondary Air Tubes- Which introduce new oxygen into the firebox creating a secondary ignition which gets more heat from less wood.
  • Heavy Steel Construction- Made from a 3/16"" steel body and a 1/4"" thick steel top which carries a lifetime warranty.
  • Ceramic Glass- Which can withstand high temperatures and still allows you to enjoy the fire.
  • An Air Wash System- To help keep the glass clean when the stove is in use.

Clean burning, non-catalytic wood burning stoves introduce new oxygen into the firebox before the smoke leaves the stove. The new oxygen is ignited, creating a secondary burn. This generates more heat and creates a cleaner burn. A wood burning insert will turn an inefficient open fireplace into a productive heat source. An open fireplace often pulls more heated air (that you already paid to heat) from your home than it produces. Most wood burning inserts will burn between 70% and 85% efficient. This increase in efficiency means you will get much longer burn times and get much more heat while using much less firewood. Less work, more gain. The included blower will give the insert a boost and push heat into your home more quickly.

Customer Questions
Will this work in zero clearance fireplace?
This wood burning insert will not work in a zero clearance fireplace. The Osburn 1700 Wood Burning Insert is only approved for masonry fireplaces. If you have any further questions, please call us and we will be happy to assist you.
How to cure paint on stove?
High heat paint has two types of resin, meaning one will dry at room temperature and one will dry at a high temperature (475+ degrees.) This process allows the resin to completely dry and harden to form a tight seal. Cured paint will have a duller appearance than the initial layer of wet paint. There are many helpful steps and guides online to cure a stove. If you have any further questions, please call us and we will be happy to assist you.
Does the price include a blower?
Yes, a blower (up to 144 CFM) is included. If you have any further questions, please call us and we will be happy to assist you.
Does this model have a blower and an ash pan?
This unit comes with the blower (Up to 144 CFM) and an ash lip. If you have any further questions or need further assistance, please feel free to reach out to one of our experienced customer service representative and they would be happy to assist you. Thank you and have a wonderful day.
Where is the air intake control?
The air intake control is located at the bottom right of the unit. For additional information, please see page 21 of the manual. If you have any further questions please feel free to give us a call! Thanks.
What size wood insert is right for my home?
Choosing the right size wood insert depends on both your heating needs and the dimensions of your existing fireplace. Be sure to measure your fireplace’s width, height, and depth, then compare those to the minimum fireplace dimensions listed on each product page to ensure a proper fit. Generally, small inserts heat up to 1,500 sq. ft., medium inserts cover up to 2,500 sq. ft., and large inserts can heat areas larger than 2,500 sq. ft., though actual performance varies based on factors like firewood type, room layout, ceiling height, and insulation.
Do I need a chimney liner for my wood stove or fireplace insert?
A stainless steel chimney liner kit is always recommended when installing a wood-burning fireplace insert or freestanding stove in a masonry chimney. The liner ensures a consistent and safe flow of exhaust gases, improving the draft and overall efficiency of your appliance while protecting your chimney from heat and corrosion. Using a chimney liner helps maintain safety and enhances stove performance.
Do any wood inserts qualify for a federal tax credit?
Yes, wood-burning inserts that meet government efficiency standards and qualify for the 30% federal tax credit are clearly marked at the top of each product description on HVACDirect.com. You can also view all qualifying models in one place at https://hvacdirect.com/stoves/tax-credit-stoves.html to find the best option for your home.
What is a faceplate or surround for a fireplace insert?
A faceplate, surround, or trim kit is used with fireplace inserts to cover and close the gap between the insert and the fireplace opening. It helps create a clean, finished look while ensuring a proper fit, and should be sized slightly larger than your fireplace’s width and height. Various sizes are available to match common fireplace openings for a seamless installation.
Do I need a blower for my fireplace insert?
A blower is a great addition to a fireplace insert that helps boost heat output and improves efficiency by circulating warm air more effectively throughout your room. While most inserts can operate without a blower, adding one is beneficial if you want faster, more even heating. If extra heat isn’t necessary, your insert will still work well without a blower.
