Supreme 38SFC_D_II: is it worth buying?
Wood stove by Foyers Supreme. Also sold as 38ST_D_II, Elegance ST 42 II, Astra Duo 38 II, Monarch See-Through 38 II, Wayland See-Through 38 II, Novo Duo 38 II – Cast Iron and more.
A good pick if you want long burns between loads.
The catch: less heat than most and more wood used for the same heat.
How it compares
Against all 156 new wood stoves, from the EPA's lab tests. Longer bar = better.
Source: EPA certification record 5239, checked Nov 1, 2026. Smoke compared as a share of each stove's legal limit, since stoves tested on real cordwood get a higher limit.

Other questions
What size chimney liner does it need?
Match the liner to the flue collar size in the Supreme 38SFC_D_II owner's manual, and have a certified installer confirm it fits your chimney.
It's non-catalytic. What does that mean?
There's no catalytic combustor, so no combustor part to replace down the road.
What do these numbers mean?
The EPA tests every new stove before it can be sold. "Heat" is the most heat it put out in the test. "Clean burning" is smoke per hour. "Heat from each log" is the share of the wood's energy that reaches your room. Firebox size tells you how much wood it holds, which drives how long it burns.
