What causes combustion to occur?

Air, fuel and heat must be present for combustion to occur.

• Burn only seasoned wood

• Burn only white paper not glossy, use a fire starter preferably.

• Burn hard wood-Oak and fruit trees.

• One ton of pellets is equal to 2,000 pounds (pellet bags are generally 40 pounds)

• Wood stoves are not usually measured by BTU's as efficiencies rely on:

1. Type of wood

2. Condition of wood

3. Amount of wood

4. High ceilings

5. Insulation

6. Open area

7. Burning habits
