Four reasons for buying a catalytic wood burning appliance. #3

Reason Number 3...

Catalytic wood burning stoves are clean burning.

Current EPA regulations restrict only particulate emissions. Catalytic combustors provide dramatic reductions in airborne particulates, but catalysts are also highly efficient at burning other compounds in the exhaust stream, such as carbon monoxide, methane, benzene, and volatile compounds. This thorough combustion means higher efficiency, lower emissions, and safer performance (because the exhaust is mainly CO2 and water vapor).
