I recently installed a new VC Defiant Catalytic Model 1945. A few questions for folks experienced with this stove, or with CATs:
How often do you inspect the Catalytic Combuster?
How difficult is it to get to for inspection? Does it need to be removed?
How often do you clean it?
Do you have to remove it to clean it, and how difficult is it to remove?
Have often have you needed to replace it?
If replaced, how much did a new one cost? Have you tried an aftermarket brand like Condar? If so, did it work as well as an OEM unit?
Any information will be greatly appreciated!!
