1.Pellet fuel is loaded into the hopper.

2.You set the state-of-the-art modular circuit board to manual or automatic.

3.Heavy-duty auger feeds precise amounts of pellet fuel from the hopper into the firepot.

4.Pellets fall into the stainless steel firepot where the automatic igniter starts the pellet fuel on fire within 1 to 7 minutes for hands- free operation.

5.High pressure air is pulled into the base of firepot from the quiet combustion fan and 5. 5. forced through burning pellets. The variable 5. speed control automatically allows the fan to be turned down in conjunction with the feed rate.

This process achieves almost complete 5. combustion of the fuel (over 95%) and allows the greatest amount of heat value to be 5. transferred into your home. The pellet fuel when burned leaves only residual ash.

6.The super-heated air is next drawn through a series of heat exchange tubes along the top of the firebox. Combined with the heat exchange plenum at the rear of the firebox, heat is pulled out of the fire and transferred into your home.

7.A super-quiet variable speed convection fan (130 CFM on compact and 165 CFM on large models) draws in the cool room air and pulls it around the heat exchange system. This transfers the heat from the appliance and delivers hot air directly into your home.

All models come standard with black painted door and grill. Pewter and 24 karat gold plated door and grills are available as upgrades.

ASTM E 1509-95, CSA B366.2, UL 1482-94, ULC S627-93 specifications

The Lopi UL 1482-94, ULC S627-93, ASTM E 1509-95, and CSA B366.2 are critical standards that establish safety and performance criteria for residential heating appliances, particularly wood stoves and hearth systems. These standards ensure that products are designed and manufactured to maintain effectiveness while minimizing risks associated with fire and emissions.

The Lopi UL 1482-94 is particularly focused on safety requirements for solid fuel burning appliances. It sets forth guidelines to ensure that wood stoves are constructed in a robust manner, facilitating safe operation without compromising on performance. The standard requires thorough testing of components to withstand the rigors of intense heat and potential flue gas emissions.

ULC S627-93 complements this by addressing the specific Canadian market, taking into account additional environmental considerations and safety protocols suited to Canadian weather conditions. The inclusion of stringent emissions limits underscores the importance of reducing pollutants, promoting cleaner air without sacrificing the heat output necessary in cold climates.

ASTM E 1509-95 shines a light on the performance of decorative solid fuel burning appliances. This standard lays down guidelines for efficiency testing and performance measurement, ensuring that the appliances not only operate safely but also provide adequate heating capacity. By measuring various factors such as heat output and efficiency, it helps consumers make informed decisions about the wood stoves they choose.

CSA B366.2 focuses on the installation requirements and guidelines for solid biofuel-burning appliances. It encompasses ventilation, clearances, and installation safety, ensuring that appliances are correctly positioned to operate effectively while minimizing fire risks and maximizing heat performance. The standard encourages responsible installation practices that contribute to the longevity of the appliance and the safety of the home.

These combined standards advocate for innovation in technologies used in stove design, such as advanced combustion methods that reduce emissions and improve efficiency. Features like secondary air combustion systems and catalytic converters are increasingly common, optimizing the burn process and making the most of each log used.

In summary, Lopi's adherence to UL 1482-94, ULC S627-93, ASTM E 1509-95, and CSA B366.2 reflects a commitment to safety, efficiency, and environmental responsibility, ensuring a reliable heat source for homes while prioritizing the well-being of both users and the environment. This comprehensive approach allows homeowners to enjoy the comfort of wood-burning appliances with confidence.
