(1)
Values are as measured per CSA B415.1-10, except for the recommended heating area, hopper capacity,
maximum burn time and maximum heat input rate. Results may vary depending on pellet quality, density,
length, and diameter.
[*]
Recommended heating area and maximum burn time may vary subject to location in home, chimney draft,
heat loss factors, climate, fuel type, feed rate, fuel level, and other variables. The recommended heated
area for a given appliance is defined by the manufacturer as its capacity to maintain a minimum acceptable
temperature considering that the space configuration and the presence of heat distribution systems have a
significant impact on making heat circulation optimum.

(
)
Grades of pellet fuel are determined by organizations such as Pellet Fuels Institute (PFI), ENplus and
CANplus.
(2)
Based on the maximum burn-rate and a dry energy value of pellet at 8,600 BTU/lb.
(3)
Overall : Radiated and delivered heat together.
(4)
Efficiency based on radiated and delivered heat when allowing cycling from high to low burn to simulate
thermostat demand.
(5)
Higher Heating Value of the fuel.
(6)
Lower Heating Value of the fuel.
(7)
Delivered: Remotely provided to other rooms through ducting.
(8)
Efficiency based on delivered heat when allowing cycling from high to low burn to simulate thermostat
demand.
(9)
Optimum overall efficiency at a specific burn rate (LHV).
(10)
Based on delivered heat output.
(11)
This appliance is officially tested and certified by an independent agency.
(12)
Carbon monoxide. Based on overall heat output.
(13)
Unless stated otherwise, measures were taken directly at the main power source and include all electrical
components present in the appliance.
