Ice house furnaces

[Browneye]

You Guys that have built you own Ice Houses where did you source your vented furnaces.

I got mine out of a camper that it was blown over in the wind And totaled. I used the furnace, the converter, the stove/oven , counters, and the lights. I like the forced air furnace and directional ducts to keep the floors dry. I used tuff coat ( rino lining ) on the floor instead of carpet.

I bought mine from fish house supple like Obi stated, if I were to do another build I’d make room for one of those diesel heaters, im going to add one in my current house.

I went with a direct vent in my house I built 10 years ago and will also be putting one in my new build I’m currently working on. No need for batteries or generator. Hate relying on power for heat. Can spend the whole weekend on the lake with 4 Milwaukee batteries. Drill holes, run a fan on and off and hook it them up to my lights.

4 batteries? How do you run the tv and the playstation?

Get a Empire vented and you will last a life time. No frosted up windows or doors.

No time for video games when you’re hammering fish all day! I like to get away from the rat race and relax while ice fishing. A little music is enough for me!

I also like a libation or two on the frozen getaway.

Similar to what Fester posted with a stovetop fan for air circulation. Not a fan of the temp set/fan forced heaters (ex. Castles). Heavy drain on batteries when leaving go overnight when not there. Heater like that almost require generator unless you dig your 4 batteries out of your boat and put them in the swap cycle.

Dickinson heaters are nice. They put out a good amount of heat & don’t take much space. They’re a lot more efficient than the typical rv furnace
