What the Princess 32 heats
Without a published area, compare the output with the heat a house needs. Estimated loss on a 0°F night (from average-winter use):
| Floor area | 1970s house, Oregon | Pre-1950, North Dakota | Within 36,300 BTU/h? |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1,000 sq ft | 15,024 | 19,224 | Both |
| 1,500 sq ft | 22,537 | 28,836 | Both |
| 2,000 sq ft | 30,049 | 38,448 | Median state only |
| 2,500 sq ft | 37,561 | 48,061 | Neither |
These are estimates from average use, not a heat-loss calculation of a real house, and a stove heats the room it stands in first. The Princess 32 runs from 11,974 to 36,300 BTU/h, a 3-to-1 range, which helps in mild weather when a big stove would otherwise be turned down and smoulder.
Wood it burns in a winter
With its published 82% efficiency and a 1,500 sq ft example house, heating 1,500 sq ft (built in the 1970s) on generic 20 million Btu cords takes about 2.7 cords in Oregon and 4.7 cords in North Dakota. The maker quotes up to 32 hours per load.
The species that burn best in any stove are the dense hardwoods Utah State rates excellent overall: osage-orange (30.5), black locust (28.3), white oak (27.9), apple (27), bur oak (26.3) million Btu per cord. Burn them dry; see how to season firewood.
Emissions and EPA rules
At 0.55 g/h the Princess 32 is 28% of the EPA's May 15, 2020 limit of 2 g/h and 22% of the 2.5 g/h limit for stoves certified on cord wood. The EPA rules guide explains the limits.
