Hi All-Has anyone heard about any new rules from
EPA on wood stove emissions? I read an ad in
local shopper and they were advising to buy one if
you are in the market because EPA regulations will
force wood stove manufacturers to modify the
stoves to meet pollution standards,and increase
price. I assume old stoves will be "Grandfathered"
in, but not sure.
I looked wood stoves up on the EPA site and they
are indeed lowering the "particulate" emission
allowed per volume of air. This site has many
pages of regulations from what I could see.
If I am wrong in any of these statements please
let me know.
I do not know if there is a comment period about
this subject to the EPA, like there is for air
pollution and the new proposed water rules (these
rules are not good from what I can see) but sounds
like nasty rules are coming April of 2015 unless
they can be stopped.
