When you're comparing incinerators, it's easy to assume the one with the biggest temperature number is the better choice. But the number you see in marketing is often the flame temperature, not the temperature inside the chamber where the work actually happens.
Here's why that matters! The hotter a chamber has to stay, the more fuel it burns. In many cases, a lower chamber temperature gets the job done just fine, and running hotter than you need to only adds to your fuel bill.
Some areas do have rules that require a higher temperature, so it's worth checking what applies to you before you shop. Once you know what you need, you can pick equipment that fits it without paying for more than you'll use.
