    I didn't see a link for that Brian. What I DID see was that the EPA is imposing a 12 microgram/cubic meter of air limit on new stoves.....
    A person smoking a cigarette in a car with the windows UP creates around 3,000-4,000 micrograms/cubic meter of air.......so think about it. How in the hell is a woodburner going to be able to cut particulates down to that level?

    Do you guys really want to go there, even clean burning practices and EPA stoves are "dirty" compared to propane and natural gas.
    I can post the links but not trying to start a fight.
    What do you think I ment by my statement "its all about the numbers"?

    I know what you meant sparky.....no offense taken......
    But, as has already been proven (not just in recent years but over the course of many) you can't trust everything the government tells you either......OK, politics over.....
