Panel Deflects Stove Heat
Paul Miller from Gardiner, Minn., wanted to deflect stove heat from back walls. He designed a decorative solution made from repurposed tin ceiling tiles. He spaced the metal 4 in. from the wood walls with a 5-in. bottom gap to circulate the heat up and away from the wood. The metal protects the wall behind it from overheating.
“I got the idea when I heard about a friend who paid a mason to tile the same area behind his stove, and the tile fell off the wall anyway.” Miller decided to make a more cost-effective alternative. “I paid $30 for some vintage tin ceiling panels from Habitat for Humanity, and my work was, of course, free.”
Not only does Miller’s design improve his wood stove’s functionality, but he believes it makes it a beautiful addition to the wall behind it.
