The Facts On BTU’s: 
There are only two rating methods that mean something to you the consumer. The first is the Btu output that is 
achieved during EPA testing. This testing is quite complicated and costly milled woods are burned. This is a 
standard for all manufacturer testing and is not intended to provide consumers with a model for how a stove will 
burn in their home. The second method that counts is what Blaze King refers to as the “Real World” method. 
These btu’s are achieved during in house testing using the same thing a consumer burns, split, dry, cordwood. 
In our tests, we use fir. The “Real World” btu’s listed are what the average consumer can expect to achieve, with 
slight variations depending upon geographical location, type of wood, elevation and the amount of fuel added. 
Higher btu’s are possible. If you were to stand in front of your stove and frequently add fuel, burn the unit on high 
and have optimal conditions, the PI1010 could produce as high as 87,500 btu’s
.
However, maximum btu’s would
only be achievable at certain “peak” times during the burn. Blaze King does not wish to mislead you so we give 
you all the facts.
