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.

Please note that the HT-1200 and HT-2000 series stoves do not have the same operating range. The HT-1200 type stove burned between 0.69 kg/h and 2.69 kg/h, the HT1600 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
