Introduction

Pacific Energy of Duncan, BC, contracted with PFS-TECO to perform EPA certification

testing on FP16 LE Wood-Fired Room Heater. All testing was performed at PFS-TECO’s

Portland Laboratory. All testing was performed by Sebastian Button.

Notes

• Prior to start of testing, 50 hours of conditioning was performed by Pacific Energy

staff at a medium burn setting, in accordance with ASTM E3053.

• Prior to start of testing, the dilution tunnel was cleaned with a steel brush.

• Front filters were changed on sample train A at one hour for all 3 test runs.

• A total of 3 test runs were completed. Test runs were performed in accordance

with ASTM E3053. All runs have been found to be appropriate, no anomalies

happened, and all runs reported below have been validated and found compliant.

See the Run Narrative section for further detail on each run.

• All fuels loads were positioned in an east-west orientation in the firebox, in

accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

• No fuel pieces used for testing were intentionally debarked.

• All fuel pieces were split to meet the individual and total load weight criteria based

on the firebox volume.

• No fuel pieces were squared.

• Negative weights found on filters are due to filter material sticking to O-rings and

have been appropriately handled. Negative weights on O-rings and probes are

treated as zero in accordance with ASTM E2515.

Results

The weighted average emissions rate for the 3 run test series was measured to be 1.4

g/hr with a Higher Heating Value efficiency of 63%. The average CO emission rate for the

3 tests was 0.9 g/min. The Pacific Energy FP16LE Wood-Fired Room Heater meets the

2020 cordwood PM emission standard of ≤2.5 g/hr per CFR 40 part 60, §60.532 (c).

Detailed individual run data can be found in Appendix A submitted with this report.

Test Run Narrative

Run 1

Run 1 was performed on 04/03/2020 as a high fire test run per ASTM E3053. Emissions

sampling began from a cold start ignition of kindling and start-up fuel. The test fuel load

was loaded 19 minutes into the test. Testing was completed when 90% of the test fuel

load was consumed. Total test time was 81 minutes, main test fuel load burn time was 62

min. The particulate emissions rate from kindling ignition to test completion was 4.15 g/hr.

The burn rate of the test fuel load was 4.25 kg/hr. The main test load portion of the run

had an overall HHV efficiency of 57%. The train A front filter was changed at 1 hr. All test

results were appropriate and valid. There were no anomalies and all test criteria were

met.

Run 2

Run 2 was performed on 04/03/2020 as a low fire test run per ASTM E3053. The overall

test duration was 354 minutes. The burn rate for the test run was 0.98 kg/hr. The

particulate emissions rate for the test run was 0.36 g/hr. The run had an overall HHV

efficiency of 65.7%. The train A front filter was changed at 1 hr. All test results were

appropriate and valid. There were no anomalies and all test criteria were met.

Run 3

Run 3 was performed on 04/03/2020 as a medium fire test run per ASTM E3053. A non-

sampling high fire test was performed to establish a coal bed prior to starting the run. The

overall test duration was 230 minutes. The burn rate for the test run was 1.47 kg/hr,

therefore the medium fire category requirements were met, less than the mid-point of the

high and low burn rates (2.62 kg/hr). The particulate emissions rate for the test run was

1.02 g/hr. The run had an overall HHV efficiency of 63.7%. The train A front filter was

changed at 1 hr. There were no anomalies and all criteria were met.
