Non-cat. The three pipes are the burn tubes.

If it has the secondary air tubes it's a non cat.

My Uncle has a 2000. Pretty good heater. As long as you use the blower. Pretty much E/W loading. Unless you cut the wood really short. I took some chunks and smalls over and it burned great N/S. But cutting your wood to 12" would be a pain.

Careful with that statement in the future rdust. Remember the Woodstock Progress.

Uh huh and the Alderlea's don't use burn tubes either.. Actually it's similar to the Progress stove except the baffle is level and parallel to the top of the stove VS the Progress which is angled toward the front..

No reason to be careful with that statement in this thread, he said this "mine its a high efficiancy model country hearth 2000 from the us stove co" no where does it say Woodstock in his post so the Progress does not apply here.

Once again the OP already said it had tubes(OP actually said "pipes") with this statement "it has a ceramic board covering 3/4 of the top of the stove , its resting on 3 pipes with holes in it going width wise" His question wasn't about the types of technologies out there, just asked a question about his stove.
