    Summary: 
    A rocket mass heater is a heavy, slow-release radiant heater, an earthen masonry heating system which provides clean, safe and efficient warmth for your home, while using 70-90% less fuel than a typical woodstove. It is designed primarily to heat people, secondarily to warm the areas in the line of sight around it. Fully illustrated, and packed with hard-to-find information from leading experts in the field, The Rocket Mass Heater Builder's Guide combines comprehensive design, construction and installation instructions with detailed maintenance and troubleshooting advice.
