Fuel Type Dry Cordwood
Recommended heating area (sq. ft..)1 250 to 1,200 ft2(23 to 111 m2)
Overall firebox volume21.1 ft3(0.031 m3)
EPA loading volume 1.03 ft3(0.0292 m3)
Maximum burn time17 hours
Maximum heat output (dry cordwood)3 45,000 BTU/h (13.2 kW)
Overall heat output rate (min. to max.)2 4 8,471 BTU/h to 31,700 BTU/h
(2.48 kW to 9.29 kW)
Average overall efficiency3
(Dry cordwood) 75 % (HHV)580 % (LHV)6
Optimum overall efficiency7 82 %
Optimum heat transfer efficiency8 78 %
Average particulate emissions rate9 1.5 g/h (EPA / CSA B415.1-10)10
Average CO11 34 g/h
1Recommended heating area and maximum burn time may vary subject to location in home, chimney draft,heat loss factors, climate, fuel type
and other variables. The recommended heated area for a given appliance is dened by the manufacturer as its capacity to maintain a minimum
acceptable temperature in the designated area in case of a power failure.
2The overall rebox calculation is an approximation and is not intended to be used for loading. This volume includes a buffer zone to allow an easier
fuel insertion, prevent ash spillage and allow the air wash to work properly.
3The maximum heat output (dry cordwood) is based on a loading density varying between 15 lb/ft3and 20 lb/ft3. Other performances are based on
a fuel load prescribed by the standard. The specied loading density varies between 7 lb/ft³ and 12 lb/ft3. The moisture content is between 19%
and 25%.
4As measured per CSA B415.1-10 stack loss method.
5Higher Heating Value of the fuel.
6Lower Heating Value of the fuel.
7Optimum overall efciency at a specic burn rate (LHV).
8The optimum heat transfer efciency is for the low burn rate and represents the appliance's ability to convert the energy contained in the wood logs
into energy transferred to the room in the form of heat and does not take into account the chemical losses during combustion.
9This appliance is ofcially tested and certied by an independent agency.
10 Tested and certied in compliance with CFR 40 part 60, subpart AAA, section 60.534(a)(1(ii) and ASTM E3053-17 based on the ALT-125 send by EPA
on February 28th, 2018.

2.4 EPA Loading Procedure
The loading methods shown below are those that were used during emissions certification.
2.4.1 Air control
The air control is located above the door. To open the air
control, insert the removable handle onto the air control
and push the air control handle completely to the right
(High). This will increase the burn rate. To close the air
control, push the air control handle completely to the left
(Low). This will decrease the burn rate. Do not leave the
handle on the air control after use, as it will get very
hot.
2.4.2 High burn rate (primary air control open)
Open the air control completely. Criss cross 6 kindling
wood pieces in the back of the firebox. Then, place six
small pieces (2”x2”) of wood on the kindling crossing them at the greatest possible angle. Criss
cross ten others kindling wood pieces on the small pieces of wood. Tie knot with five sheets
of paper and place them on top of the kindling wood. Light up the paper and let the door
completely open for two minutes. Close the door.
When the kindling and the small pieces of wood are almost completely burnt out and it is
possible to break them into pieces, level the coal bed and put four logs in the firebox in an east-
west orientation. Place a medium log (about 4”x4”) in front of the combustion chamber and the
biggest log (about 5”x5”) in the back of the combustion chamber. Place the last two medium
pieces on top of the two others in an orientation that points to the right. Do not leave space
between the pieces. Let the door open ajar at 90° for 5 minutes and close the door.
2.4.3 Medium and low burn rate
On a 2” coal bed that is still red, place five logs of approximatively 4”x4” or 3”x3” with an east-
west orientation. Place two logs on the coal bed with approximatively 4” between them and the
other three on top. There should be air space between each logs and between the logs and the
bricks. Let the door ajar at 90° for 5 minutes and then close the door with the primary air control
fully open. Leave to burn with the primary air control open for approximately 10 minutes and
then close the primary air control completely for the low burn rate and halfway for the medium
burn rate.
WARNING
Before opening the door completely to add
wood to the insert, the fan must be turned OFF
to avoid blowing ash outside the combustion
chamber. Refer to section "5.1 Blower" of the
owner's manual for how to turn OFF the fan.

3. Clearances to Combustible Material
When the insert is installed so that its surfaces are at or beyond the minimum clearances
specified, combustible surfaces will not overheat under normal and even abnormal operating
conditions.
NO PART OF THE INSERT MAY BE LOCATED CLOSER TO THE COMBUSTIBLE THAN THE MINIMUM
CLEARANCE FIGURES GIVEN.
CLEARANCES MAY ONLY BE REDUCED BY MEANS APPROVED BY THE REGULATORY AUTHORITY.
