B. BTU & Efficiency Specifications
EPA Certified Emissions: 2.2 grams per hour
*LHV Tested Efficiency: 80.1%
**HHV Tested Efficiency: 74.1%
***EPA BTU Output: 12,100 to 32,000 / hr.
****Peak BTU/Hour
Output:
Vent Size: 6 inches
Firebox Size: 1.68 cubic feet
Recommended Log
Length
Fuel Orientation: Side to Side
Fuel Seasoned Cord Wood
*Weighted average LHV (Low Heating Value) efficiency
using Douglas Fir dimensional lumber and data collected
during EPA emission test. LHV assumes the moisture is
already in a vapor state so there is no loss in energy to
vaporize.
**Weighted average HHV (High Heating Value) efficiency
using Douglas Fir dimensional lumber and data collected
during EPA emission test. HHV includes the energy
required to vaporize the water in the fuel.
***A range of BTU outputs based on EPA Default
Efficiency and the burn rates from the low and high EPA
tests, using Douglas Fir dimensional lumber.
****The peak BTU out of the appliance is calculated using
the maximum first hour burn rate from the High EPA
Test and the BTU content of cord wood (8600) times the
efficiency.
