Another factor is: fixed firing rate verses stepped firing or even more efficient full modulating. Your facts and figures are bias and slanted toward the way you want them to be and do not represent and accurate picture.
Hmmm, I think that tummyman was simply providing data and asking for others to adjust the numbers as appropriate. In another thread I thanked him for his effort and offered updated pellet stove data.
