Found a 1980s Concorde Catalytic stove in the garage of the estate I'm sorting out. It's brand new, still on the pallet. Does anyone know what it's value might be? AND, I've read several threads on this stove and understand some models were sub-par. Can anyone tell me how I can tell if I've got a lemon, or a decent, SAFE wood burning stove? The Installation booklet indicates it's one of the following models:; 14, 24, 34, or 44. Thank you!

There should be an identifying UL lab testing label on the side or back of the stove. Can you post a good picture of that?
 
The label doesn't show much, just that it's a Concorde Catalytic. This appears to be before Franklin started selling them via Scania. There are some good postings on the stove here.

As for the model, I didn't realize they made so many. @webbie would know, but I don't know if he is stopping by anymore. You can probably figure out the model by noting the difference in specs and installation or operational directions in the manual. Some might just be trim differences and one may be the insert model. If you could scan the manual and post it, that would be super. This would help the next person with a Concorde.

I'll be happy to get the manual up in the next few days. Any idea how to reach @webbie?
