Recommended heating area and maximum burn time may vary subject to location in home, chimney draft,heat loss factors, climate, fuel type
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 in the designated area in case of a power failure.
2
The maximum heat output (dry cordwood) is based on a loading density varying between 15 lb/ft
3
and 20 lb/ft
3
. Other performances are based on
a fuel load prescribed by the standard. The specified loading density varies between 7 lb/ft³ and 12 lb/ft
3
. The moisture content is between 19%
and 25%.
3
As measured per CSA B415.1-10 stack loss method.
4
Optimum overall efficiency at a specific burn rate (LHV).
5
This appliance is officially tested and certified by an independent agency.
6
