Default Re: answer this question for me.....

I'm thinking the wood shelves would burn, so they would contribute to a higher burn temp and would heat the room faster.

Metal shelves would not heat up faster, because they won't burn. However, the metal shelves may keep the room warmer, longer after the burn because they would maintain their heat longer.
