Kozy Heat: Oakport Gas Stove

A small freestanding gas stove for a cabin, a bedroom, or a room that never had a fireplace.

Who It’s For

Some rooms have no fireplace and no wall worth opening up for one: a cabin, a three-season room, a basement bedroom. You need a fire that stands on its own and heats a small space well. If that is your room, the Kozy Heat Oakport is the compact gas stove built for it. A built-in fireplace means construction; this one sits on legs in the room you already have.

What Makes It Special

The Oakport is a freestanding stove on a leg base, with a screen front included and an on/off switch right on top. A stove sends heat out from every side, so a small unit makes a cabin or a den comfortable.

Choose the electronic-ignition model, which lights only when you turn it on, or the standing-pilot model, which runs with no electricity, so the fire keeps heating through a power outage.

It is approved for bedroom installs, and prairie or arched prairie overlays dress up the front.

Possible Downsides

• The fan and the remote are optional, not included.
• The standing-pilot model burns a small flame around the clock unless you shut it off for the season.
• It is sized for a small room. For more heat in a freestanding stove, see the Lakefield XL.

If you want real fire and real heat in a small room without building a fireplace, the Oakport is the right decision. The cabin is warm before the coffee is ready.

Choose a prairie or arched prairie design overlay, black glass firebox panels, and an optional fan, remote, wall switch, or thermostat.
