UL1482-11 (R2015)and ULC S627-

00 and (UM) 84-HUD, Mobile Home 

Approved.

EPA Certification #:

664

EPA Certified Emissions:

2.1 grams per hour

*LHV Tested Efficiency:

78.7%

**HHV Tested Efficiency:

72.9 %

***EPA BTU Output:

12,000 to 28,800 / hr.

****Peak BTU/Hour 

Output:

44,000

Vent Size:

6 inches

Firebox Size:

1.4 cubic feet

Recommended Wood 

Length:

16 inches

Fuel Orientation:

Front-to-Back

Fuel

Seasoned Cord Wood

*Weighted average LHV (Low Heating Value) efficiency 

using Douglas Fir dimensional lumber and data collected 

during EPA emission test. LHV assumes the moisture is 

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

vaporize.
**Weighted average HHV (High Heating Value) efficiency 

using Douglas Fir dimensional lumber and data collected 

during EPA emission test. HHV includes the energy 

required to vaporize the water in the fuel.
***A range of BTU outputs based on EPA Default 

Efficiency and the burn rates from the low and high 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 

the BTU content of cord wood (8600) times the efficiency.

NOTE:

 This installation must conform with local codes. In the absence of local codes you must comply with (UM) 84-HUD and 

NFPA211 in the U.S.A. and CAN/CSA-B365 Installation Codes in Canada. 

This wood appliance needs periodic inspection and repair for proper operation. Consult the owner’s manual for further 

information. It is against federal regulations to operate this wood heater in a manner inconsistent with the operating 

instructions in the owner’s manual.
