B. BTU & Efficiency Specifications
EPA Certification #: 925
EPA Certified Emissions: 2.2 grams per hour
*LHV Tested Efficiency: 78.3%
**HHV Tested Efficiency: 72.4%
***EPA BTU Output: 11,200 to 35,900 / hr.
****Peak BTU/Hour
Firebox Size: 2.42 cubic feet
Recommended Log
* Weighted average LHV (Low Heating Value) efficiency
using Douglas Fir dimensional lumber and data collected
during EPA emission tests. LHV assume the moisture is
already in a vapor state so there is no loss is energy to
vaporize.
**Weighted average HHV (High Heating Value) efficiency
using Douglas Fir dimensional lumber and data collected
during EPA emission tests. HHV includes the energy
required to vaporize the water in the fuel.
***A range of BTU outputs calculated using HHV
Efficiency and the burn rates from the EPA tests, using
Douglas Fir dimensional lumber.
****A peak BTU out of the appliance calculated using
the maximum first hour burn rate from the High EPA Test
and BTU content seasoned cordwood (8600) times the
efficiency.
