Scott Dietrich : Here is a start, The J-tube style
RMH is concerned with how the fuel is loaded into it- Vertically, it takes up less floor space and needs less attention
than a horizontally loaded RHM, A 6'' RMH can be made ether way, but would be huge both in the space it takes up and the heat out put !
Assuming an interior space 14' X 14' the Rocket burner part would take up about 1/6 of your space as you will need a minimum 18'' distance away from all flammable
objects and walls and only then by erecting reflective barriers with an air gap behind the barrier of at least a further 4''-6''.
A sub 6'' sized RMH with any amount of Thermal Mass storage is a very hard first build ! Many who have tried to do so, failed and gave up on the attempt !
There is a commercial 4'' Castle Build unit available from the people at
Dragon Heaters,
dragonheaters.com that would serve you easily up to 4Xs the size you
are contemplating, it is the only Rocket-type unit small
enough to work in your limited size/location ! I hope this helps and is timely ! Big AL !
