My father has a pot belly stove in his garrage. He wouldn't have put it in
if it wasn't up to code.


Detached garage may be OK. National fire code forbids the use of solid
fueled heaters in attached garages. Our local shoppers paper used to print
the code in the ad section for wood/coal stoves. I've posted the particular
section here in the past but do not recall the regulations.
