Nice job.I have a Hearthstone II catalytic sitting in my shop that also needs some work, where did you get your parts? Anyone in the Twin Cities looking for a project?

I got them from here: http://woodheatstoves.com/
But, I can't recommend them. Nothing dramatic, but the stove was so old & many parts discontinued caused me to have to em them many times. Instead of letting one employee handle my order, I must have talked to 6 different people. Consequently my order got a little screwed up & I had to do all the follow up to straighten it out. I guess they are a big outfit & they are really busy this time of year, so a bad time for a tedious order. When I spend $600 bucks I kinda want a little more support from the seller than I got with them.
Anyway, any Hearthstone dealer can handle parts for the H-2. If a part shows no longer available you can contact Hearthstone directly. They have a ton of old stock & some part numbers have changed. They will not sell direct, so you have to use a dealer which is a good policy for the dealers.

Saved the stove from just rotting away, A job to be very proud of for sure. And deserving of some rep.
I have the same stove. Ot was in the house when I moved in. It's in great shape. Can someone tell me what the Decorative great is going around the back and the end of the stove is along with the tube with holes is. On the back of the stove is a small metal box with a flap then it goes inside the stove

Looks real good.. I bet just lots of hot fires over the years, rather than one runaway. I replaced the insides of our H2 at least once - the fireback was warped badly and the top baffle plate pretty messed up. They were really sharp looking stoves - my favorite was the chocolate brown ceramic castings with the brown stones.
