(20% moisture)

* Weighted average LHV (Low Heating Value) efficiency

using Douglas Fir dimensional lumber and data collected

during EPA emission tests in accordance with the

requirements of CSA B415.1. LHV assumes the moisture

is already in a vapor state so there is no loss in energy to

vaporize.

using Douglas Fir dimensional lumber and data collected

during EPA emission tests in accordance with the

requirements of CSA B415.1. 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 of seasoned cordwood (8600) times

the efficiency.
