Residential Firewood. Firewood is used as a primary or supplementary heating source for many Canadian homes. Combustion of firewood results in CO2, CH4 and N2O emissions, which are considered technology-dependent. The main types of residential wood combustion devices considered are stoves, fireplaces, furnaces and other equipment(i. e. pellet stoves). 1, record 2, English, - residential%20firewood

Bois de chauffage résidentiel. Le bois de chauffage est une source de chauffage principal ou d'appoint dans de nombreux foyers canadiens. Sa combustion émet des émissions de CO2, du CH4 et du N2O, qui dépendent de la technologie. Les trois principaux types d'appareils de combustion de bois de chauffage en milieu résidentiel sont les poêles à bois, les foyers et les chaudières et autres appareils (p. ex. les poêles à granules). 1, record 2, French, - bois%20de%20chauffage%20r%C3%A9sidentiel

Burner Efficiency Tests and Adjustments... A smoke spot tester is used to measure the soot content of flues gases. The serviceman will adjust the air intake band on the burner until a visually smokeless flame is produced in the combustion chamber. The probe of the smoke testing apparatus is inserted through the hole in the flue pipe and a flue gas sample is drawn through a piece of filter paper. The resulting soot mark on the paper is compared in intensity to a standard chart. The chart shows measurements labelled 0 to 9 and most residential oil furnaces can burn cleanly enough for a 0 to 1 rating... a number 2 smoke is ideal. 1, record 9, English, - smoke%20spot%20tester
