We make it our goal to provide our customers with the finest outdoor wood furnaces available anywhere. For you as a consumer, wood heat offers many advantages. Wood is renewable, inexpensive, carbon neutral and often free. Conventional sources of heat such as propane, natural gas, fuel oil and electricity deplete our irreplaceable fossil fuels. They are also subject to constant price fluctuations. The E-Classic outdoor wood gasification furnace provides a heat source free of foreign nation influence and “the grip of big oil.” It takes the ageold idea of heating with wood and modernizes it. By keeping the fire outside the home, the E-Classic eliminates the dangers and mess associated with traditional indoor wood stoves. The E-Classic uses a three-stage combustion process to burn wood so completely that combustion efficiencies approach 100%. With the patent-pending, self-cleaning heat exchanger, the E-Classic produces extremely low emissions per Btu of heat delivered and is one of the cleanest ways to heat with wood. Our E-Classic offers you an alternative that will save you money. This brochure will provide answers to questions you may have about our clean, efficient approach to wood heat. Please browse through this brochure to learn how you can benefit from an E-Classic outdoor wood gasification furnace for your home or business. E-Classic Model 2300 The E-Classic Can Work for You. The E-Classic outdoor wood gasification furnace is located outside, typically 30 to 50 feet (but as far as 500 feet) away from your home or business, and works with any existing heating system. A water jacket surrounds the furnace firebox and heat exchanger and heated water is circulated to the home or building through insulated underground pipes. Water-to-air or water-towater heat exchangers or direct circulation conveys the heat into the structure’s forced-air furnace, boiler or radiant floor heating system. This allows for normal thermostatic control for safe, even, clean and comfortable heat. The ability to heat multiple buildings and water can eliminate your heating bills. Outside burning removes the threat of devastating chimney fires, dangerous carbon monoxide or oxygen depletion which affects your indoor air quality. It also eliminates the smoke, ashes, odors and soot buildup on walls and ceilings inside your home that indoor burning creates.

Must be installed in accordance with all applicable codes and regulations. Based on EPA output ratings. Actual Btu output and burn time will be affected by the type of wood burned, its moisture content and other factors. How wood burns - stages of combustion For wood heating appliances, adding too much oxygen can cause wood to burn too rapidly and uncontrollably, leading to higher emission rates and lower efficiency. By delivering oxygen in the proper amount at the right time in the combustion process, the E-Classic achieves a controlled combustion that delivers high heat output and low emissions. Stage 1 As wood begins to burn, the initial heat is used to drive the moisture out of the wood resulting in steam exiting the chimney. This is heat that would otherwise be used to heat the water in the furnace. Properly seasoned wood (with a moisture content of 15% to 25%) burns better and gives off more heat. Stage 2 The second stage of combustion is the heat-producing stage. During this stage, two processes occur as temperatures reach different levels. The process by which gases are released from wood and burned is called primary combustion. Primary combustion releases a large amount of energy but also releases large amounts of unburned combustible gases. These gases, called secondary gases, contain up to 60 percent of the potential heat in the wood so their combustion is important to achieve high overall combustion efficiency. In order for these gases to burn, sufficient oxygen and high temperatures are needed. The air supply is critical. Too little air will not support combustion and too much will cool the temperature to a point where combustion cannot occur. The E-Classic's design optimizes secondary combustion to maximize heat output. Stage 3 After gases are driven from the wood and burned, the substance that remains is charcoal. Charcoal burns for a long time, releasing additional heat and providing a way to rekindle wood when it is added. The combustion process begins in the primary burn area where the wood is loaded and ignited. When the temperature controller calls for heat, air is injected into the firebox and the fire becomes more intense. Because the firebox is sealed, the hot gases are forced downward into the Fusion® Combustor. In the Fusion Combustor, super-heated air is injected into the already hot gases and results in an extremely hot flame. The downward draft forces this intense flame into the Reaction Chamber™. Heat is transferred from the heat exchanger and into the water supply as it travels upward toward the exhaust area. The extreme temperatures achieved in the Reaction Chamber result in final combustion of the gases and combustion efficiencies that approach 100%. One of the benefits of the extremely high burn temperatures is reduced emissions.
