“The keystone to any bunker, this simple hearth functions both as oven and warmth in the coldest weather, heating a fair area around it when built on solid foundations.„
— In-game description

The Bunker Hearth is a Bunker modification that warms up soldiers when fueled with Diesel.

Construction

A Tier 1 Bunker Hearth can be built by modifying any Tier 1 Bunker with a Hammer and 35 Basic Materials if it has the following requirements:

  • Connected to a Bunker Base through trenches or bunkers
  • Bunker Base must have unlocked the Support Bunkers (Tier 1 & Tier 2) ObservationBunkerT2ItemIcon.png upgrade

Use Mouse Scroll Wheel to select the bunker wall where the hearth will be placed.

Installing that modification very slightly decreases (0.97) the Structural Integrity of its Bunker Network.

Tier 2

A Tier 2 Bunker Hearth can be constructed by modifying a Tier 2 Bunker with a Hammer and 40 Basic Materials or by upgrading a Tier 2 Bunker Hearth if it has the following requirements:

  • Connected to a Bunker Base through trenches or bunkers
  • Bunker Base must have unlocked the Support Bunkers (Tier 1 & Tier 2) ObservationBunkerT2ItemIcon.png upgrade

Tier 3

A Tier 3 Bunker Hearth is built by modifiying a Tier 3 Bunker or by upgrading a Tier 2 Bunker Hearth (the latter being cheaper overall) with 15 Concrete Materials. It must be connected to a Bunker Base (either through trenches or other bunker pieces) with the Support Bunkers (Tier 3) ObservationBunkerT3ItemIcon.png upgrade.

The concrete must dry off for 24 hours (longer during a Snow Storm or Rain Storm). While wet, the structure already works but is more vulnerable and cannot be upgraded except adding small modifications.

Reconstruction

Like every other "room" structure upgrades it only leaves behind a simple Bunker husk of the corresponding tier with no modification installed when destroyed. The husk can be destroyed or it can be rebuilt and the upgrade reinstalled normally.

Use

It doesn't have a proper interface.

Fuel

In order to work it must be fueled with Diesel, no other fuel type is accepted. Equip a Diesel can and click on the pit by pressing LMB. The fire automatically starts as soon as the Hearth has diesel. It can hold up to 100L of Diesel (one can) and consumes 5L per minute, meaning the fire lasts 20 minutes when fully fueled. How much fuel remains in the Hearth is represented by the visual size of the burning fire.

Warming

When fueled, it quickly and automatically warms up soldiers in the Bunker Hearth and in the bunker directly adjacent to it (even diagonally). Warming up/thawing something never takes more than 30 seconds and the warming rate does not depend on how much Diesel is in the Hearth.

It has no use when there is no Snow Storm.
