    From the article, "And while business has been good, due mostly to strong sales of the company’s famed sauna stoves, wood furnace sales have lagged expectations. That’s because the Trump administration has been slow to enforce the new rules for furnaces"

    Did kuuma think that each, most, or even many prevented purchases of a 2000$ furnace would result in the purchase of a 6000$ wood furnace? I wonder if instead of pushing purchases to kuuma, the new regulations pushed more than the expected amount of purchases to propane burners. Or maybe the buyers are waiting for other wood furnace competition to legitimately pass the 2020 regs at a lower price point.

    Keep fighting Kuuma! You should have this time to enjoy the monopoly that you earned.

    Ooh, you can link to hearth now? Seems like just yesterday everybody was censoring each other. Good news.

    Ya...I dunno...for some reason that is the only way I could make the links work...and I was shocked to see that it actually did work!
    I suppose it works because it just takes you to the document, not to hearth...:sherlock:
