Anyone have any photos of the catalytic converter on these units? Any input on how often they need to be cleaned? Are they reliable? Thanks

They 3" round pucks.if I remember correctly about 1 1/2" thick.looked to be well built.I do know that NC gets them shipped in from China.I talked to Dave about his stoves when he was at my friends house.I thought they were nice and he said to just check them a couple times.

He's right.   they are well made.   From what I have heard, testing shows that they should last at least 6 years.  They are pretty inexpensive to replace too.
