Hestia seems to have gone out of business I guess ?  Any one know ?  Before they tried to amrket the pre-made units, they sold the plans for their backyard build.  Does anyone have a copy of these or know how to reach the Hestia people ?  It was built from bricks or cement blocks and had an EPDM cover that would expand and also provide the pressure for the gas, this was a home built design

Hi Debi, is this the one you are looking for?

Looks like they tried to raise funding a few years back - guessing it didn’t play out since the website is now for sale. Bummer!

See ya later boys, I think I'm in love. Oh wait, she's just a tiny ad:
Switching from electric heat to a rocket mass heater reduces your carbon footprint as much as parking 7 cars
