This Ecodesign and DEFRA-exempt Stovax product uses three different features in its new clean-burn system to ensure its high efficiency. Combining secondary heat retention glazing, combustion jets, and air flow diverts help to keep the internal temperature high, resulting in an even more complete burning of the gasses that fuel the engine. This, in turn, results in less harmful emissions and reduces the amount of particulates released into the air.
The result is an efficient stove that has large glass windows to see the fire. There's a selection of colored handles and a curved chrome pedestal to complement your interior. The top loading stove comes with a large flat surface for the placement of kettles and pans.

It can only burn wood and smokeless fuels that have been approved by DEFRA. If you burn unauthorised fuels, you could be punished up to PS1,000 per hour for the amount of particulates released into atmosphere.
This is accomplished by a new clean combustion system that has been improved to include a new air supply that is introduced into the combustion chamber through channels and jets above the fire. The gas that is pre-heated ignites the volatile gases released by the fuel, resulting in a complete burn with fewer harmful emissions. It also introduces an air wash, or cushion of air, that is directed towards the glass, which gives you a clearer view of the flames.
This combination of systems ensures that the brand new Penguin stove meets the strictest emission standards and is classified as an "Ecodesign" stove. It emits less than 20 mg/m3 when you burn wood, and 16 mg/m3 if you use smokeless fuels.
