Autonom Robust Gasification wood Boiler support group

[hyfire]

There is a new facebook group up for anyone interested to learn about these CSA Approved boilers available across Canada. I am not sure on the UL listing for USA use. The dealer is in the group who could answer any questions about use in other countries. Feel free to join and learn about these boilers. They have been around a while and I have not seen any negative comments on them. https://www.facebook.com/groups/511442771236993

I looked on the epa site you are correct, I wonder why not?

Testing requirements
I talked to a guy at Econoburn a few years ago during covid and they could not meet the requirements at the time because of covid so their new models were not EPA certified

Only 2 possible reasons:
- they don't want to spend the money (lack of enough sales to offset this high cost)
or
- they know their wood boiler will not pass this EPA emissions testing

Where can i find the epa emission limits?

 

[hyfire]

I found the epa for wood boilers limits. Step 2 requirements .1 lb per million btu output 2020 rule. That works out to 4.5 grams per 100 k btu. The autonom boilers 200 k btu model produce 4.5 gramss at 200 k btu. So it beats all epa limits .

Means nothing if they don't have the EPA testing completed to EPA's specifications

That is true, but I just wanted to show the actual specs and limits still.

If it's not tested by a certified third party testing lab according to the EPA procedures there are no actual data that show it meets it...?
