Osburn 1700 wood stove: a mid size stove with a built in ash pan and a 7 hour burn
The Osburn 1700 wood stove is a freestanding wood stove for indoor use. Osburn rates it for 500 to 1,800 square feet, so it can heat a mid size open room or a small house. It has a cast iron door and an ash pan you can empty without a shovel. It stands on the floor on a hearth pad, the fireproof panel that goes under a stove, and vents up through a stovepipe into a chimney.
Load it up and turn the air down, and it burns up to 7 hours. At full burn it puts out up to 65,000 BTU. A blower, a quiet fan that pushes the heat out into the room, is optional on the page. You pick the door overlay on the page, the trim around the glass door, in black or brushed nickel. You also pick how it stands: on legs or on a pedestal base. An outside air kit, which feeds the fire air from outdoors, is optional. It burns dry, seasoned firewood. You can add a glass ash lip that catches sparks, or a hearth pad in steel or glass, and more on the page. Need a larger stove? See the Osburn 2000 wood stove. The Osburn 1700 wood stove ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.
FAQ
What size space is the Osburn 1700 designed for?
It is designed to meet the needs of smaller spaces, with a recommended heating area of 500 to 1,800 square feet and a maximum heat output of 65,000 BTU/h. Among Osburn wood stoves, it is the smallest, the step below the 2000-class models.
Does it have an ash pan?
Yes, a built-in ash pan is part of the design, alongside a cast iron door, high-density bricks, a stainless steel heat shield added to the C-Cast baffle, and a top heat deflector that redirects heat toward the front of the unit where you feel it.
Do I choose legs or a pedestal?
Yes. The Pedestal / Legs selector on this page is a required choice: traditional or straight legs in black or brushed nickel, or a pedestal base. Note that the matching fresh air intake kit differs between the leg and pedestal versions, and both kits are offered on this page.
Is a blower included with this stove?
No. A 130 CFM variable speed blower is available as an add-on under Other Accessories on this page, so you can include fan-assisted heat distribution in the same order if you want it rather than paying for a fan you might not need.
How long does it burn per load?
Maximum burn time is 7 hours. The firebox has an overall volume of 1.86 cubic feet with an EPA loading volume of 1.44 cubic feet, and Osburn recommends dry cordwood cut to 16 inches to reach the rated output and burn times.
What clearance and floor protection will I need?
The 1700’s side panels are specifically there to reduce its clearances, but the binding numbers are the ones in the owner’s manual for your configuration. For the floor, black steel, tempered glass and tinted tempered glass hearth pads, plus modular floor protection, are available on this page.
Can I customize how it looks?
Yes. Osburn offers refined door overlays, a choice of leg designs and a glass ash lip for this model. The door overlay in black or brushed nickel and the leg or pedestal style are required selections on this page, and the glass ash lip is an optional add-on.
