Frequently Asked Questions

No they are not. It’s important to know whether or not it is legal to install a non-certified stove where you plan to install it. It’s also important to note that if you have insurance at the location you‘re installing the stove that it will most likely not cover having a non-certified stove installed.

As with any non-certified wood stove, the minimum distances to combustibles for each stove is required to be listed at 48” in Canada and 36” in the U.S. 

This can be reduced quite a bit with a proper heat shield. 

An easy way to find shipping costs is to add the items you’d like to your cart and proceed to the checkout where you fill in the shipping address. After you’ve entered your address it will tell you how much shipping will be.

I don’t do installations but can offer advice. If you are not comfortable installing a wood stove please seek help from someone qualified to do so. 

An Ookpik was a fictional character my brother and I would tell stories about as kids. The first stove I ever built resembled the Ookpik  so I called it the Ookpik stove. After a few weeks I decided to make an Instagram page to share my stoves and projects and called it Ookpik Offgrid Creations. Tiny wood stoves,  stainless steel sinks and other small living furniture was the goal but Ive since stuck to just tiny wood stoves.
