According to information I've read from EPA publications. JUCA are exempt. It burns cleaner than EPA rated stoves regardless of exemptions. that's why it's able to burn green wood cleanly. the entire unit is designed to accelerate burning. when you close the door, you see flames immediately get hotter.
so what you post pictures your insert burning hot. never stated it couldn't. here's a pic of mine burning hot... what does that prove? nothing...... what counts is the chimney's output in smoke when burning hot.
hince the entire point of this thread! which you have taken off topic.
if it bothers you that much start your own thread!
what a MORON you are! Here's a link just in case you don't understand. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moron
"EPA exempted central wood furnaces, which nearly all JUCAs qualify as. Secondly, the JUCA non-airtight operation creates a higher than 30:1 ratio of oxygen to wood and thereby is exempt as being non-airtight.
"The EPA made it abundantly clear that their strict rules were ONLY meant to apply to air-tight products, which happen to be MOST of the woodstoves on the market. In the Federal Register, of February, 1988, EPA 40 CFR Part 60, states:
The intent of the committee was to exempt from the standards those appliances which rely on clean-burning air-rich conditions and which have high combustion efficiencies.
This statement exempted traditional masonry fireplaces and the very few non-airtight woodstoves (like JUCAs) that were and are on the market."
