Travis Industries, Inc.
Model: Endeavor
Report Number:0028WS062E
INTRODUCTION
Travis Industries, Inc. retained OMNI to perform U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
certification testing on the Endeavor Freestanding woodstove. The Endeavor Freestanding wood
stove is a Non-Catalytic-type room heater. The firebox is constructed of mild steel. Usable
firebox volume was measured to be 2.43 cubic feet and the stove is vented through 6” flue collar
located on the stove top.
Testing was performed at Travis Industries. The altitude of the laboratory is 500 feet above sea
level. The unit was received in good condition and logged in on 1/7/2019, then assigned and
labeled with
OMNI ID #2337. OMNI representative Bruce Davis conducted the certification
testing and completed all testing by January 10, 2019.
This report is organized in accordance with the EPA-recommended outline and is summarized in
the Table of Contents immediately preceding this section. The results in this report are limited to
the item submitted.
SAMPLING PROCEDURE
The Endeavor wood stove was tested in accordance with the U.S. EPA 40 CFR Part 60,
Subpart AAA – Standards of Performance for New Residential Wood Heaters using EPA
Method 28R, ASTM E2515 and EPA Alt-125, ASTM E3053. Particulate emissions were
measured using sampling trains consisting of two Teflon coated 47mm filters (front and back).
See Appendix A for details on EPA Alt-125.
The model Endeavor was tested for thermal efficiency and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions in
accordance with CSA B415.1-10 using Douglas Fir cordwood.
SUMMARY OF RESULTS
The weighted average emissions of the three test runs included in the results indicate a
particulate emission rate of 1.4 grams per hour. Tests one and two were omitted from the
weighted average due to an error made during fuel load preparation. An incorrect value was
entered into a spread sheet that calculated fuel load weight range, and coal bed weight range.
This caused the high burn to be conducted with a startup fuel load out of range by 0.06 pounds.
The error also caused the high burn to be concluded 0.1 pounds too soon. It was determined that
these errors may have affected run two which was conducted on the coal bed created by run one.
Particulate emissions used in the weighted average were sampled on only one of the high burn
fuel loads, test 5 was conducted to generate a coal bed for test number 6. The Endeavor results
are within the emission limit of 2.5 g/h for affected facilities tested with cordwood, manufactured
on or after May 15, 2020.
The proportionality results for all 3 test runs were acceptable. Quality check results for each test
run are presented in Section 2 of this report.
