Manufacturer Notes
- Recommended heating area and maximum burn time may vary with location in the home, chimney draft, heat loss factors, climate, fuel type, and other variables.
- Maximum heat output (dry cordwood) is based on a loading density of 15–20 lb/ft³; other performance figures are based on the standard test fuel load of 7–12 lb/ft³ at 19–25% moisture content.
- Efficiency values are measured per the CSA B415.1-10 stack loss method; optimum heat transfer efficiency reflects the low burn rate (HHV).
- Any installation must be done according to the data and drawings detailed in the owner’s manual.
