The story of Fisher Wood Stoves is that of a small scale inventor whose ideas grew beyond his control. In 1973 Bob Fisher was working as a metal fabricator - business was slow and he was struggling to support his wife and children, while finishing building his own pole frame home.
He realized that the open stone fireplace he had painstakingly built was inadequate for heating the building and fuel prices for their oil boiler were increasing. He got the idea in his head to build an efficient stove to keep his family warm and spent months sketching, plotting and planning his first Fisher Wood Stove.
Bob Fisher had some basic criteria that he wanted from his stove, and his wife supplied some of her own:
It had to be an airtight wood stove
Ventilation needed to be restricted and controllable with vents
It had to be able to keep a fire in over night
Carol wanted to be able to cook on the top of the stove
The stove couldn't smoke when the door was opened
The Fisher Stove had to last - this called for heavy duty steel and firebrick
"Fisher wood stove models are no longer manufactured in North America, and so they are not available in the states. Also, Fisher parts are not readily available, so people with older models still in their homes might have a hard time with maintenance if something broke.
Bob Fisher designed this wood stove in Oregon in the mid-seventies. The push for designing a new type of heater was from his own first hand observations. Then current designs were leaking too much air and needed a tight fit to the chimney. Adding new sealing and welding scheme, he then licensed the designs to twenty-five steel fabricating shops throughout North America. The Fisher Stove International Organization pioneered certain safety regulations that went in affect around 1980. in fact, they were one of the first companies to meet the standards engineered at both the Canadian Standard Association and the Underwriters Laboratories. Fisher stoves manufactured before this date do not meet safety regulations, and most insurance companies insist that the older model be replaced for safety’s sake.
You can recognize the early models from their heavy steel doors, almost furnace like in construction. They were available with several metal finishes. Cast iron, nickel, or brass doors were available options.
Most of the models after 1980 do meet the safety standards, so they do not necessarily need to be replaced. However, you may want to replace your Fisher model anyway, because it could be very difficult to find parts. Also, approximately twenty years ago, new emission standards were developed. Older models do not meet these emission standards, and they can release a great deal of pollution into the air. Wood stoves that do not meet emission standards might be illegal in some jurisdictions. Today, some people consider Alaska stoves somewhat comparable, or even a knockoff."
Fisher Stoves had its roots in Oregon. Bob Fisher, its founder, is credited for producing the first "airtight" welded steel plate stoves. Like many applications that appeared and flourished during the late 1970s energy crisis, these wood stoves were built with efficiency and durability in mind. The Goldilocks and the Bear Series stoves saw a rise in popularity during the 1980s, and some of them even underwent a transition from solid front doors to those with windows and brass trim. While they are no longer in production here in America today, we can still cut pyroceram glass for these stoves and inserts.
