1 Model:2100 Wolf Steel td. - Barrie, ON 4M 4Y8 't NTRODUCTON Wolf Steel td. retained OMN to peforrn U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) certification testing on the 2100 wood stove. The 2100 wood stove is a non-atalltic, freestanding, radiant-type room heater. The firebox is constructed of mild steel. Usable firebox volume was measuled to be 1.5 cubic feet and the stove is vented through a 6-inch diameter flue collar located at the top ofthe unit. laboratory is 30 feet above sea level. The unit was received in good condition and logged in on November 10, 2008, then assigned and labeled with OMN D #1318. OMN representative Ken EPA was notified of the testing dates in a letter dated December 11, A testing contract, including provisions for Random Compliance Audit (RCA) testing, has been signed by Cliff - illey of Wolf Steel td. and is on file at OMN s testing faciliry. The 2100 wood stove was tested in accordance with the U.S. EPA 40 CFR Part 60. Suboart AAA Standard of Performance for Residential Wood Heaters (Appendix A, Methods 28 and 5G). Particulatemissions were measured using a Method 5G sampling train consisting of two filters (front and back). The weighted averag emissions ofthe four test runs included in the results --\-, indicate a particulat emission leve1 of 3.9 grams per hour. #5, a fari confirmation test run, was performed and was not used in the weighted averagemission results. Test runs were conducted in each of three bum rate categories ( kgftr, kglhr, and maximum). Emissions for each of their individual test runs did not exceed the cao. The 2100 results are within the emission limit of 7.5 grams per hour for non-catalytic affeited facilities manufactured on or after July 1, 1990, or sold at retail on or after luly l,1992. The wood heater was sealed after completion oftesting in compliance with the EPA regulation as follows: o "DO NOT TAMPER" labels were placed on the door and on all other openings. o Plastic material sealed with "DO NOT TAMPER" labels and tape was wrapped around the unit.. The unit was sealed in a wood box constructed for the unit and secured with steel banding. o "DO NOT TAMPER" labels were placed on all outer surfaces of the box. This report is organized in accordance with the EPA-recommended outline and is summarized in the Table of Contents immediately preceding this reporl.

Four test runs were conducted in the following categories and included in the weighted average emission level results: two in the 0.80 to 1.25 kgllu dry category; one in the 1.25 to 1.90 kg,4r dry category; and one at maximum. The weighted particulate emission level was measured to be 3,9 g/hr. tl- The proportionality results for all four test runs were acceptable.
