Is there anything that can be added on to an existing stove to improve the efficiency ??

I have read about secondary combustion and dont know if someone has designed an add-on (?)

This would not be the same as just taking heat off of the flue pipe -- that is not the desire

thanks

Contemplating if extending the flue will cause more secondaries and improve efficiency.
