CFR part 1406, Coal and Wood Burning
Appliances—Notification of
Performance and Technical Data
requires that manufacturers and
importers provide consumers with
written notification regarding certain
technical and performance information
related to safety on each coal and wood
burning appliance. Manufacturers are
also required to provide to the
Commission a copy of the notification to
consumers and an explanation of all
