How Long to Bypass on Reload

[BKVP]

So, emissions will be better.

How much will the lifespan be increased?
For a consumer that would have to be compared with the difference in price.

Yes emissions reduction is correct. All wood heaters require 50 hours of conditioning prior to emissions tests.

We run combustor testing 200+ days a year. We torture them. The combustors we use provide reduced emissions over a greater period of time. This translates to a longer life of clean burning.

This will wrap up my sharing on this topic.

I understand you can't say more.

I do hope you understand that a quantification of lifetime extension is needed to make a decision whether the economics of the more expensive combustor makes sense for the consumer.

Barring that , we have a more expensive combustor that will give cleaner air. That may not be sufficiently convincing to spend more money...
