Benjamin Franklin invented the Franklin Stove because he wanted to improve heating systems during this time period. The fireplaces before this wre very poorly designed and only heated a small part of an area. He did not put a patent on thisite because he wanted to give other inventors a chance to invent things. Also, people probably did not have the money for this stove/fireplace so he didn't chrge them any money at all for this item.
