What space does the Travis Industries 42 Apex suit?
- Its 49,626 BTU/h peak output covers roughly 1,400–2,000 sq ft at the 25–35 BTU/h-per-square-foot rule of thumb — see the sizing calculator to adjust for your insulation and climate.
- The 3.2 cu ft firebox puts it in the large-home, overnight-burn class.
- Rough fuel use: about 2.4 cords per season at the midpoint of its output range (8 burn-hours/day, 150-day season, 22 MMBtu/cord — see methodology).
- Certified burning Cord Wood — the test fuel closest to real-world firewood.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Travis Industries 42 Apex EPA certified?
The Travis Industries 42 Apex holds EPA certification number 134-18 but is no longer on the current certified list — it is previously certified, which usually means the model is out of production. Already-installed units are unaffected by that status in most jurisdictions.
What is the Travis Industries 42 Apex's emission rate?
The Travis Industries 42 Apex is certified at 0.93 grams of particulates per hour (tested with cord wood). Real-world emissions depend heavily on fuel moisture and operation — the lab figure assumes seasoned fuel and correct air settings.
How many square feet can the Travis Industries 42 Apex heat?
Roughly 1,400–2,000 sq ft, estimated from its 49,626 BTU/h peak output at 25–35 BTU/h per square foot. Insulation, climate, ceiling height, and floor plan move this figure substantially in both directions.
Does the Travis Industries 42 Apex qualify for a federal tax credit?
No — the federal 25C credit for biomass stoves was terminated for property placed in service after December 31, 2025. The Travis Industries 42 Apex's certified efficiency is 73% HHV, which did not meet the credit's ≥75% HHV threshold while it existed. State and local incentive programs may still apply — check your state energy office and air district.
