The Huntingdon
A large wood stove is an excellent way to add a bit of traditional charm to any home. It's also a great option to warm your home particularly when it's engineered with high seasonal efficiency. New log burners have to meet strict health and environmental standards, including limiting smoke emissions to 5g of carbon monoxide per hour. To reduce this impact on your home, it's crucial to select an appliance that has a wide flame with a large window, a robust airwash system to keep the glass clear, and a removable door handle for safety and convenience.

wood heater stove Defrost
The name implies, this 4.7kW stove is designed to defrost the windows after a winter walk or cook the family dinner. This Ecodesign and DEFRA exempt Stovax product uses a new clean burn system that has three distinct features to ensure its high efficiency. A combination of secondary heat-retaining glazing, combustion air jets and air flow diversion helps keep the internal temperatures high, which results in a much more complete combustion of the gases generated by the fuel. This helps reduce harmful emissions and also reduces the amount of particulates released in the atmosphere.
The result is an extremely efficient stove that also has an impressively large glass window that really lets you see the fire from inside. There is a choice of coloured handles and a chrome pedestal that is curved to suit your interiors. This top loading stove also features a large flat surface to place kettles and pans on.
Like all stoves made by Stovax and Stovax, the Pengiun is compliant with the most recent Ecodesign regulations and has passed all required tests and inspections. It is only able to burn wood and smokeless fuels approved by DEFRA. If you burn fuels that are not approved by DEFRA you could face fines of as much as PS1,000 per hour due to the amount of particles released into air.
This is accomplished through an innovative clean-burn system that has been upgraded with an air pre-heated feed that is introduced to the combustion chamber via jets and channels over the fire. The gas that is pre-heated ignites the volatile gases released by the fuel, resulting in an entire burn that produces less harmful emissions. It also creates an air wash, or cushion of air that is directed at the glass, which gives you a clearer view of the flames.
The combination of these systems ensures that the new Penguin meets the strictest emission limits and is classified as an Ecodesign stove. It emits less that 20 mg/m3 of carbon dioxide if you burn wood, and 16 mg/m3 if you use smokeless fuels.
