English translation:masonry heater/heating system
Explanation:
A masonry heater (also called a masonry stove) is a device for warming an interior space through radiant heating, by capturing the heat from periodic burning of fuel (usually wood), and then radiating the heat at a fairly constant temperature for a long period. Masonry heaters covered in tile are called cocklestoves (also tile stoves or ceramic stoves).

A masonry heater (also called a masonry stove) is a device for warming an interior space through radiant heating, by capturing the heat from periodic burning of fuel (usually wood), and then radiating the heat at a fairly constant temperature for a long period. Masonry heaters covered in tile are called cocklestoves (also tile stoves or ceramic stoves). The technology has existed in different forms, from back into the Neoglacial and Neolithic periods. Archaeological digs have revealed excavations of ancient inhabitants utilizing hot smoke from fires in their subterranean dwellings, to radiate into the living spaces. These early forms have evolved into modern systems.

Evidence found from 5,000 B.C. of massive blocks of masonry used to retain heat foreshadowed early forms of fire hearths that were used as multifunctional heating sources. Later evolutions came in the Roman hypocaust and Austro-German cocklestove (Kachelofen, literally "tile stove", or Steinofen, "stone stove"), using the smoke and exhaust of a single fire. In Eastern and Northern Europe and North Asia, these cocklestoves evolved in many different forms and names: for example the Russian stove (Russian: Русская печь), the Finnish stove (in Finnish: pystyuuni or kaakeliuuni, "tile oven") and the Swedish stove (in Swedish: kakelugn, "tile stove" or "contra-flow stove") associated with Carl Johan Cronstedt. The Chinese developed the same principle into their Kang bed-stove. The masonry heater has gained renewed domestic popularity recently because of its heating efficiency.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thank you, Edith!! However, I don't think "tiled oven heating" suits here. Hereunder a German explanation of the term: Eine Ganzhausheizung (auch Kachelofenheizung) wird vom keramischen Kraftpaket Kachelofen betrieben. Hier zeigt das vielseitige Heizgerät, was es wirklich alles kann. Nämlich die Wohlfühlwärme in alle Räume zu bringen. Das funktioniert mit unterschiedlichen Systemen, die Heizenergie quer durchs Haus transportieren. Die Ganzhausheizung: ein großer GewinnDie Basisstation ist auch dabei ein Kachelofen, der selbstverständlich trotzdem auch eine Sichtscheibe als Brennraumtür haben kann. Zusätzlich wird ein Pufferspeicher benötigt. Außerdem wird bei diesen Systemen außer dem bewährten Scheitholz oft auch auf Pellets gesetzt, die durch die inzwischen üblichen elektronischen Steuerungen für ein Höchstmaß an Benutzerfreundlichkeit sorgen. Die Wohlfühlwärme unseres Kachelofens gibt es dabei sozusagen auf Knopfdruck. So präsentiert sich ein Jahrhunderte altes Heizgerät als High-Tech-Produkt, das nicht nur für gesunde Wärme sorgt, sondern den Geldbeutel schont, umweltfreundlich ist, die Wohnlandschaft durch tolles Design bereichert und unabhängig macht von Energieversorgungen, die fremdbestimmt und damit manchmal unsicher sind.
