Performances are based on a fuel load prescribed by the standard at 7 lb/ft³ and with a moisture content between 19% and 25%. Optimum overall efficiency is achieved at a specific burn rate (LHV). This appliance undergoes official testing and certification by an independent agency.
The maximum heat output with dry cordwood is determined by a loading density varying between 15 lb/ft³ and 20 lb/ft³, while other performances adhere to a standard fuel load. The specified loading density ranges between 7 lb/ft³ and 12 lb/ft³, with moisture content between 19% and 25%.
Measurements are conducted per CSA B415.1-10 stack loss method, considering the Higher Heating Value (HHV) and Lower Heating Value of the fuel. The optimum heat transfer efficiency is observed at the low burn rate (using HHV), showcasing the appliance's ability to convert solid fuel energy into heat transferred to the room, without considering chemical losses during combustion.
It's important to note that recommended heating area and maximum burn time can vary depending on factors such as location in the home, chimney draft, heat loss, climate, fuel type, and other variables. The recommended heated area is defined by the manufacturer as the capacity to maintain a minimum acceptable temperature in the designated area during a power failure.
Please be cautious of carbon monoxide considerations when operating this appliance.
