    Here is some literature I found. May not have anything to heat setting.

    B. Calculating Total Energy Input
    1. Higher Heating Value vs. Lower Heating Value
    A critical value used in applying the thermal efficiency standard is the “total energy input” for the year for which thermal efficiency is being calculated. One of the first steps in determining the total energy input for a unit is identifying the unit’s fuel mix and the heat content or heating value of the fuel or fuels combusted by the unit. Heating value, commonly expressed in Btu, can be measured in several ways, but the most common are to use gross heat content (referred to as “higher heating value” or “HHV”) or to use net heat content (referred to as “lower heating value” or “LHV”). According to the Energy Information Administration (EIA) of U.S. Department of Energy, higher heating value includes, while low heating value excludes, “the energy used to vaporize water (contained in the original energy form or created during the combustion process).”2
    As discussed above, EPA adopted in the existing rules the same thermal efficiency standard as that adopted by FERC in determining whether a unit is a qualifying cogeneration unit, except that EPA applied the thermal efficiency standard to all fuels and the FERC limited application of the standard to natural gas and oil. FERC’s regulations that included the thermal efficiency standard stated that “energy input” in the form of natural gas and oil “is to be measured by the lower heating value of the natural gas or oil.” See 18 CFR 292.202(m). As explained by FERC when it adopted these regulations in 1980 (45

    But my main point being it falls right in line with some other high quality stoves.

    Maybe, But they only have accordion style heat exchangers. I'd like to see the HHV of a tube type which should offer even more due to larger surface area to extract heat with.

    I would too. Although I do not know if they would actually have more surface area. There is more to it than exchanger shape.

    I would guess the Enviro Maxx will be one of the top efficiency stoves.

    I'm not sure if they have done the HHV testing. So I'll just :zip: for now.

    I would also be curious on the SBI units.

    To could not find any information on any Enviro units. But the size of that unit gives it an advantage I would think.

    I don't think any of the CA. stoves have released any numbers that I can see.

    Not sure size has anything to do with it, since the results are a %......just sayin.

    By nature a larger stove will have more surface area on the heat exchanger and a longer air path which to extract heat. This is what in am basing my guess on.
