Ours was coal fired. It had a box about 15 inches square, and 18 inchs deep that was the fire box. It had a removable for cleaning, grate about 3" off the bottom, made from iron rods about 5/8 diameter, spaced abput 3/4" apart. A 3" diameter inlet pipe was J shaped and about 10 inches taller than the top of the box. The "chimney" was 6" and ran for about 3 feet under water to heat additional water with flue heat before turning up to the vertical, and stood 5 or 6' above the box, and was on the opposite side from the intake. All these were iron/steel and sealed to prevent water from getting in. The lid was hinged to allow loading and tending, but was overhanging to limit cattle from splashing water into the joint. A damper was set into the exhaust pipe to regulate draft. I would put it into both intake and exhaust to regulate combustion more easily. Both had cone shaped "hats to keep out rain. It was set into the tank with about 2 inches of wall above waterline. This is a memory from more than50 years, so take it for that!! JimN
