This is accomplished with a new clean burn system that has been improved to include an air supply that is pre-heated that is inserted into the combustion chamber through jets and channels above the fire. The pre-heated gas is used to ignite the volatile gases released by the fuel, resulting in an entire burn that produces less harmful emissions.
