I'm having a hard time understanding what the difference is between these two stoves. They both appear to be manufactured by Enviro, and they look very similar.

From the brochures I can see that they have some slightly different styling, and the heat exchanger area also appears to be different. BTU, hopper capacity, and fan speed all appear to be identical.

Does anyone know if there are any important differences between these two stoves? Do they use cheaper parts in the vistaflame models?

I'd appreciate any help, thanks everyone!
 
Sherwood ind. in BC Canada Makes both stoves
1 Under Envrio
1 Under Vista flame
all parts are interchangeable

both stove use the exact same compontents inside of them. Sherwood wanted a brand that they could market to the HVAC distributors. If i remeber right i don't think the warrentys are the same i believe the vista flame is less.
