BURNER SIZE VS ROOM VOLUME
EcoSmart burner guide
The heat output of your burner should suit the volume of the room, so it warms the space without overwhelming a small room or underperforming in a large one.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| AB3 | 2.5 | 0.31 | 1.7 | 40 |
| VB2 | 2 | 0.5 | 1.8 | 45 |
| XS340 | 2.5 | 0.45 | 2.5 | 45 |
