ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Solid fuel heating appliance having high thermal efficiency and low levels of polluting emissions. The heating appliance includes an insulated secondary combustion chamber where a mixture of exhaust gases from the primary combustion chamber and secondary air is burned. A catalytic igniter is provided in the secondary combustion chamber to lower the ignition temperature of the unburned volatile gases from the primary combustion chamber. Regenerative feedback structure is provided in heat exchange relationship with the exhaust from the secondary combustion chamber to preheat the mixture entering the secondary combustion chamber. The combination of the insulated secondary combustion chamber, catalytic igniter, and the regenerative heat transfer assure substantially continuous combustion within the secondary combustion chamber even when conditions in the primary combustion chamber change. In a retrofit embodiment for existing stoves, a sheet metal partition in the secondary combustion chamber allows heat transfer from spent gases to the entering mixture of exhaust and secondary air. In a unitary stove embodiment, secondary air is heated by the spent gases which proceed to remote heat exchangers separated from the primary firebox by ventilated air spaces. To prevent room emissions, the stove door is sealed by a vented double gasket system.
