Heating

Controlled combustion is the most efficient technique for wood heating because it enables you to select the type of combustion you want for each given situation. The wood will burn slowly if the wood stove air intake control is adjusted to reduce the oxygen supply in the combustion chamber to a minimum. On the other hand, wood will burn quickly if the air control is adjusted to admit a larger quantity of oxygen in the combustion chamber. The air intake control on your stove is very simple. If you pull on it out completely towards you, it is fully open. If you push on it until it stops the combustion air is reduced to a minimum.

The following burn rates will be achieved according to control setting.

Burn rate	Low	Medium	Medium high	High
Model
HT-1600	full close	1/4"	5/8"	full open

HT-2000	full close	1/2"	1"	full open

Please note that the HT series stoves do not have the same operating range. The HT-1600 type stove burned between 0.93 and 3.32 kg/hr during EPA testing. The 2000 serie achieved between 0.95 kg/h and 4.9 kg/h under the same conditions . Real operating conditions may give very different results than those obtained in the lab according to the species of wood used, its moisture content, the size and density of the pieces, the length of the chimney, altitude, outside temperature
