I thought the stoves were warmed up first. Are stoves tested before they warm up? If so, I would think that emissions from a cat stove would be terrible until the bypass is closed.
More mass can help even out overnight temperature swings. Soapstone and cast jacketed stoves seem to do this well. We have woken up with just dwindling coals, but the room temp is still comfortable.
