Len DeLeur had been in
the business a long time
and had seen sufficient
problems to convince him
there had to be a better
way. After substantial re-
search, DeLeur found a
more economical way of
providing auxiliary heat
in the home without the
dangers inherent in the
average woodburning
way, Dallas. Although he
remains a masonary con-
tractor, a job he has been
years old, DeLeur opened
the shop in the interest of
educating the public.
Some of the advantages
of a non air-tight system
are zero clearance from
walls, an air-insulated
stove has commanded
much more popular atten-
tion due to the prolifer-
ation of dealers.
“A lot of dealers sell
stoves to make big bucks,
and they do,”’ said
DeLeur. “This business is
a sideline for me, so I can
concentrate on my
primary goal which is
safety. The numbers of
use. The catalytic heater,
again, an American-made
product, uses natural or
bottled gas and ° burns
almost 100 percent ef-
ficient.
‘““As with the wood
burner, there is too much
room for human error
with kerosene heaters,”
said DeLeur. ‘They've
already been outlawed in
according to DeLeur.
The proprietor of
DeLeur Masonry, ‘Back
to Basics,’”” in Dallas
recounts his experience in
the field as coming from
at least two generations
before him. “My father
and grandfather were
masons in Holland.”
He came to the United
States when he was three

explained. “And I've seen
too many improper in-
stallations causing pro-
blems. I knew there had to
be something a little
safer. Something
public wouldn’t be afraid
of.”
What DeLeur found
were the non air-tight
woodburners which he
now markets from his
shop on Memorial High-
rather than suction and a
minimum of loss through
the chimney. DeLeur sells
Fuego fireplace inserts,
free standing stoves and
coal units. The units are
made in Connecticut and
have been rated number
one in heatability by
testors at Auburn Univer-
sity. Although they have
been in existence about 10
years, the woodburning
educated with regard to
wood burning.”
DeLeur also has
reservations about the
ever-popular kerosene
heater, and has found an
alternative to it as well.
The catalytic gas heater,
made by Warm Morning,
serves the same space
heating purpose as the
kerosene, but is less
expensive and safer to
requires no loading, has
its own starter, and emits
no odor or film into the
atmosphere. It is also
made to shut off auto-
matically if its burn inter-
feres with oxygen levels
in the house.
Although the catalytic
heater costs about the
same as a kerosene
heater, to purchase, its
running cost is about half.
his father worked. The
family settled at Harveys
Lake while DeLeur was
still in high school and,
aside from a four year
stint in the Navy, he has
worked locally since. He
has been employed by
area wood and coal stove
dealers and installed a
good number of their
stoves in the Back
Mountain.
