That was just an ad for policy genius!
I have no idea what that means.

Insulation is good. Better might be counter flow or high thermal mass like an old Russian stove.

Masonry heaters are also known as a Russian fireplace, soapstone stove, heat-retaining fireplace, ceramic stove, tile stove, contra-flow stove, Finnish stove, Swedish stove or kachelofen. Now these are not all the same device but do share the central design feature of thermal mass heat capturing, radiant warmth.
