This is generally speaking good advice if you are running an old smoke dragon with wet wood but there are hundreds of examples of people on this site running stoves with reburn and catalytic technology very low with very little build up.
He is saying a stove can't go overnight 🤪
The general message (don't burn with insufficient combustion) is valid. But his facts were wrong in multiple places.

Anybody want to wager what his opinion on burning pine is
And he is a big part of why so many of us have left the CSIA. They now value buisness knowledge over knowledge of stoves and chimneys.

All that talk about creosote and he doesn't mention wood moisture content or seasoning or anything along those lines. I would not be hiring this company. Saying no wood stove is made to burn thru the night is just ridiculous.
He also doesn't mention monitoring pipe temps not over firing the stove etc etc etc.

Being a professional doesn't necessarily mean you are good at what you do, just means you get paid to do it.
