KMP Drag eliminates the chimney
KMP Drag is a unique solution that makes it possible to install the pellet stoves Mysinge and Solberga at an external wall, without chimney. With installation of Drag the costs are only a fraction of a normal chimney.

Pretty Cool :-)
 
But it still has to exit thru an outside wall. From what I see the only benefit is a cooler exhaust air.
Just an added expense to me, that is unless I missed something..

Does this do something to distribute and/or filter the exhaust?
This might be useful if it solved the problem of soot on the side of the house. Otherwise I do not see how it is better than a traditional vent kit.
Perhaps in Sweden it is against code to vent a pellet stove through an external wall?

yes but it`s good if you cant have a chimney

But it is usually permissible ( if not optimal ) to vent directly thru an outside wall without a chimney here in the states anyway.

I don't now if it`s filter the exhaust but i dont think so.

The kmp says that the soot should not be a problem? Iàm a bit skeptical
