FC1000E & SF1000E Efficiency Certification Report and Tax Credit Certificate
EST.
1947
This is the third-party efficiency test report HY-C Company commissioned to qualify for the Section 25D (now Section 25C) tax credit. HY-C believes that the “Heat Transfer Efficiency” listed on Page 1 of the Intertek report is the best measurement for “Thermal Efficiency” as required for the Section 25D (now Section 25C) tax credit. You should consult with your own tax advisor in making a personal tax credit determination.

MANUFACTURER’S CERTIFICATE OF QUALIFICATION The following models of biomass burning appliances have at least a 75% thermal efficiency per the higher heating value (HHV) and therefore meet the requirements as Qualified Energy Property as defined in Section 25(C) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. The data for this qualification is based upon the CSA B415.1 test method and performed by an independent EPA accredited laboratory. Consult with your Tax Advisor to confirm your eligibility for this Tax Credit.
Qualifying Products - Wood Burning Furnaces FC1000E, SF1000E, X1020, L1020
CERTIFICATION STATEMENT Under penalties of perjury, I declare that I have examined this certification statement, and to the best of my knowledge and belief, the facts are true, correct, and complete.
OVERVIEW OF TAX CREDIT Product qualifying under this tax credit must be purchased and installed between January 1, 2023 and December 31, 2032. Consumers may claim 30% of the purchase and installation costs (including installation labor) as a tax credit ($2,000 annual cap). There is no lifetime limit.

This Excel spreadsheet calculates solid fuel appliance efficiency and heat output in accordance with the procedure specified in CSA B415.1-09. In general the column headings correspond to the variables used in the Standard. All data from a test run are entered on the "Data" sheet. The cells requiring data entry are highlighted. Please note that input data can be entered in either yard/pound or SI units. Select the units in cells F4 and F5 of the "Data" sheet. Particulate emissions determined using the dilution tunnel method should be entered in cell C13 of the "Data" sheet as total grams of emissions. Since oxygen concentrations are calculated for the efficiency determination, entry of measured oxygen data is optional. However, it might be useful to include the measured oxygen values for comparison to the calculated values for diagnostic purposes. A deviation of more than 1 or 2 percentage points can indicate inaccurate CO, CO 2 , or fuel composition input data. Selection of an appliance type in cell F2 of the "Data" sheet is needed for the air/fuel ratio calculation in accordance with Clause 16.3.5 of the Standard. The "CSA B415.1 Calculations" and "Report" sheets include calculation of efficiencies based on the Lower Heating Value (LHV) of the fuel, which is not required in CSA B415.1-09. The LHV is calculated from the Higher Heating Value (HHV) and fuel composition data in accordance with ASTM E711. The "CSA B415.1 Calculations" sheet is locked and password protected to prevent inadvertent modifications. The "Chart" sheet includes a chart of flue gas composition data and fuel consumption. The range of cells in the "CSA B415.1 Calculations" sheet to be charted or plotted might need to be
adjusted to correspond to the number of data points entered. Please report any errors or problems to Tony Joseph at CSA. Tony Joseph A.L.P. (Tony) Joseph
