Dear Jeff,
I'm wondering a bit what you mean-- if you turn the stove 90° on an axis you'd have a side load horizontal draft-- I'm not just playing semantic tricks here: the chief gain in the TLUD is the even distribution of natural airflow optimized for the whole of the pyrolysis plane. Turn that on its side and you've ruined at least two of the prime factors that make it work so well. Or do you mean something completely different?

Merry Christmas!

regards,

Dear All,


I can vouch for Crispin's push back scheme for I also did the same with
a wood burner. About five years ago I showed this to Roger.

I've often wondered if anybody has built a horizontal TLUD ? ? ?


Best wishes,



Jeff

In all cases the coal is ignited at the end where the outlet to the
chimney is located and the fuel piled towards the door. This layout
accomplishes a sort of sideways TLUD that can be refuelled without
creating smoke at the end or having to reload at the very end of the
burn. Hot coals and anything else that can burn is raked to the
chimney end and some wood tossed on top. Flames develop. New coal is
added between the fire and the door and the process continues.
