News on Blaze King Sentry 14?

[Murray01]

Identical engineering as other Blaze King stoves, just much smaller. Thermostat, straight cat technology.

But not for $2850?

We haven't built the US/EPA version so we have not finalized any pricing.

But you submitted the test report to the EPA last year?

If they approve, you can't make any changes anymore, right?

True (to the interior). We know ( at this time) material costs, but construction time isn't finalized. As my orthopedic surgeon says "patience grasshopper "

Just out of pure curiosity, what are the manufacturing differences between a Canadian vs. US version? I did a quick Gemini search and the only difference it mentioned was the metal compliance label and documentation. Trade secret?

That should be a good formula for small spaces.

How about showing a 16" split either fitting or not fitting in each of these stoves. That's info people are looking for.

Hello! Any updates on when the Sentry 14 might be available in the U.S.? This stove sounds perfect for our small house, but I can't seem to find anything definitive regarding the release date. Thanks!

And you won't! EPA is extremely backlogged and what use to take 30 days is now taking 9+ months. Fingers crossed we receive certification before August of this year.

After Trump fired half the EPA they are a bit behind!

The same can be said for just about every federal agency (except ICE, of course).
So that shouldn't surprise anyone...

Actually, many folks took the buyout offered on two occasions. Yes, they probably would have stuck around longer, but many 55+ staff took the 7 months of pay and planned retirement payments. In the world of wood heater programs, staffing was likely reduced by 30% and with them went experience needed in the program.
The new folks admitted they have a great deal to learn and are moving at a pace to reduce likelihood of errors being made.

Ha......Very diplomatic statement.
