Question on Catalytic Combusters for Consolidated Dutchwest Woodstoves

I've got 2 stoves in my house (down stairs in my cellar and upstairs in my LR) that are the same size. They are both over 30 years old and have the original combusters. I've located replacements, but my questions are-

How easy to install? I think there are 4 bolts that attach the top surface and, if removed will expose the combuster. Correct?

How much more heat value will I see with new combusters?

Any feedback appreciated.

They have many videos on how to repair appliances, cars, etc.

They helped when I had questions about the pump for my cistern.

Good luck.
