What is the difference between Catalytic and Non-Catalytic wood stoves?
EPA requires that wood stoves reduce emissions. Most wood stoves, like your car, use a catalytic combustor to clean the particulates out of the exhaust. Catalytic combustors do clog and break down over time. Harman wood stoves use a Non-Catalytic combustor, which is simply a ceramic fiber package, which is chambered to swirl the exhaust and reburn the particles out of it.
