The Empyre Pro Series uses a process called wood gasification to produce highly efficient combustion in the furnace?s dual burn chambers. Wood in the firebox burns from the bottom up, drying the top layer of wood in the firebox and forcing gases and exhaust into the lower burn chamber. In the brick-lined lower chamber, these volatile gases are burned at temperatures as high as 2000 degrees F.* The fire-brick lining in both burn chambers absorbs the heat and maintains burn chamber temperatures for consistent gas combustion. This high-temperature gas combustion significantly lowers emissions, prevents creosote build-up, and minimizes ash build-up in the unit. After passing through the burn chamber, exhaust air escapes through multiple flues running through the water jacket, heating the water quickly and efficiently. The exhaust cools as it passes through the flues, and when it leaves the chimney, temperatures have fallen to 300 degrees F.*
*varies based on fuel type, burn rate and other conditions
