About Flame Innovation
At Flame Innovation, formerly 509 Stoves, we build dependable heating products with American craftsmanship. Our products are made for homes, shops, cabins, tiny houses, wall tents, patios, and off-grid living.
Our story began with a patented stove design created by Frank Reed. Later, Frank teamed up with Dusty and his father to help bring the stove into larger-scale production. Together, they saw a better way to build efficient, reliable heat for everyday people.
Today, Flame Innovation offers a full line of heating products. These include the Chinook Wood Stove, Optimum Stove, Steelhead Small Wood Stove, Caboose Tiny Wood Stove, Mini Me Non-Electric Pellet Stove, Wall Tent Stove, Revolve Smokeless Fire Pit, Liberty Fire Pit, Rocket Stoves, grills, parts, accessories, custom steel signs, and custom fabrication.
Each product is built with a simple goal: to create reliable heat that works when you need it most. Whether you are heating a home, warming a shop, setting up a hunting camp, or enjoying a backyard fire, we build products made for real life.
Our stoves are hand-welded in Post Falls, Idaho. We use American-sourced parts whenever possible. You will not find assembly lines or robots here. Instead, you will find skilled craftsmen, hands-on work, and attention to detail in every build.
In addition to our standard product line, we also offer custom fabrication. Our team can help with specialty steel work, custom-built parts, custom signs, stove-related components, and one-of-a-kind projects.
At Flame Innovation, we are proud to build products that help people stay warm, cook outdoors, gather together, and enjoy dependable American-made craftsmanship.
