Unlike the soapstone masonry heaters, which is 100% soapstone inside and outside, a soapstone wood stove has a cast iron insert. In order to maximize efficiency and heat retention, all our soapstone wood stoves are surrounded with an average of 1500 lbs of 60mm(2 3/8") thick soapstone slabs.
Other "soapstone wood stove" products available in the market, are only surrounded with a very small amount of 30mm(1 ΒΌ") soapstone, which is only decorative and not enough mass to hold and radiate heat, despite other claims, they will overheat and cool very fast. Our line of soapstone wood stoves, as mentioned above, have a substantial amount of soapstone to hold and radiate heat for hours after the fire is out.
The only way to benefit from radiant soapstone heat, is with enough soapstone to store the energy generated by burning wood, and slowly releasing it over a period of time. If a wood stove only has a small amount of soapstone, it will not store enough energy to radiate, it is as simple as that.
