How Does a Slow Combustion Wood Heater Work

In a slow combustion fireplace, jets of pre-heated air provide oxygen to the area just above the baffle, igniting impurities from the wood and capturing heat that normally escapes up the chimney. Using less firewood means less ash is produced and it also means less cleaning.
