Why an Atlantic?
The cook stove is a family institution. It holds a unique place in modern horne life. The entire household is dependent upon it and is vitally concerned in its wise selection. What makes the difference in ranges? One stove gives a consistent and faithful daily performance, another equally attractive on the outside, fails to satisfy.
What are the basic factors that together produce a good stove?
First of all, is there a reputable manufacturer back of it ? Are the castings satin-smooth and tightly fitted? Is it of simple design-free from over-ornamentation - easily taken care of? Is it economical of fuel? Is it designed for the greatest convenience of the cook? Does the heat of the oven respond quickly to the adjustment of the drafts? Can replacement parts for the fire box be obtained readily and economically in years to come? Can attachments, such as shelves, gas and warming ovens, coils for heating water, ash chutes, etc., be added at any time?
These are just a few of the questions that this company has encountered in over half a century of concentration upon the problem of producing good ranges. We made our first stove in 1877. We have been making them better and in a constantly increasing variety of useful combinations ever since. All have been improved in design and in substitution of smooth rounded surfaces for excessive ornament that formerIy added so much labor for cleaning.
The illustrations show the various ranges exactly as they look, and also give by comparison, some idea of their relative size. More detailed circulars of any range will be forwarded upon application.

Heating Stove Installation
Antique Wood-Burning Heating Stove:
Installation guidelines desrcibed on this page have been provided by the National Fire Protection Association. The NFPA standards are the basis for many local codes. These guidelines state that a wood-burning stove, heating stove must be located a mimimum of 36 inches from unprotected woodwork and other combustible materials or furniture. The addition of a heat shield or other protective devices, to the wall or the stove, allows a reduction of those distances by 50% to a distance of 18 inches from a combustible wall and 9 inches from a noncombustible wall. The wood-burning stove needs to be vented. This is done through a class-A, double-walled chimney.
Antique Heating Stove with a Gas Conversion:
An antique heating stove with a gas conversion must conform to the clearances for a wood-burning stove (above), maintaining a minimum distances of 9 inches from a non-combustible wall when a heat shield is in place. The converted heating stove needs to be vented. This is done through a class-B, single-walled chimney. Set ups to Propane (LPG) and Natural Gas available on all models. With a gas conversion the total BTU ranges from 28,000 to 45,000.
Antique Heating Stove with an Electric Conversion?
An antique heating stove with an electric conversion must conform to the clearances for a wood-burning stove (above), maintaining a minimum distances of 9 inches from a non-combustible wall when a heat shield is in place. The eletcric converted heating stove does NOT need to be vented. With a gas conversion the maximum BTU output is 38,000.
What does a proper stove installation look like?
All heating stoves must be placed a minimum of 36 inch from combustible surfaces or 18" from non-combustible surfaces. The addition of a heat shield reduces these distances by one-half. Allow a one-inch clearance between rear wall and protective, non-combustible materials for air circulation. Allow at least 18" between the top of the chimney protector and the ceiling or other combustible material.
