just wondering how many people own them and how there holding up,
mine has a few problems, seems like the cast iron afterburner is falling apart and a few other problems
for some reason the stopped production of this model
any info would be great!
 
Bruce,

From what I heard the TL-200 has some issues with its afterburn chamber and had a tendency to get overheated thus causing issues. Which was one of the main reasons why I got the TL-300 which is AB chamber can take 2x the heat of the TL-200.
On later models of the TL-200 they did reinforce the AB chamber. I would check with your dealer to see if the replacement to the upgraded AB for the TL-200 would be covered under the warranty.
 
We got our TL200 At the end of last winter and so far the Afterburner has been working great!Looking into the afterburner during operation it glows nice and hot inside the chamber via the window view which i have been told is normal operation.Hoping MishMouse is correct on the reinforceing in the newer models!ours was built early 2008.How long have you had yours Bruce??I heard some stove makers of downdraft stoves dont warrenty the back afterburner unit!dont know if this is the case with Harman too.I hope all works out well for you! take care. Stan
Update! Guess im still have asleep Didnt read your last message.
