Stove Brand Information: Bat Cave

The Bat Cave Stove Company was an early player in the wood stove industry, located near Asheville, North Carolina. The company was active during the 1970s and early 1980s before it eventually transitioned into what became Carolina Wood Stoves. Originally, Bat Cave stoves were notable for their robust, simple designs, suited for heating homes efficiently with wood. Over time, the name was phased out, and the brand was rebranded under Carolina Wood Stoves, which continued to build on its reputation for quality, even after Bat Cave stoves ceased production in 1987

Despite its relatively short-lived existence, Bat Cave Stoves are still remembered fondly by vintage stove enthusiasts. The company’s products, often viewed as a hallmark of early American stove manufacturing, are still sought after for their durability and heat efficiency. For those maintaining or restoring these stoves, parts such as doors, grates, thermostats, and glass are still available through various parts suppliers, often under the Carolina Wood Stoves name
