The Huntingdon
A large wood stove is a great addition to any home. It's also a fantastic heating option, especially when it is engineered well and has a high seasonal efficiency. New log burners must meet strict health and environmental standards and must limit the amount of smoke emissions up to 5g carbon monoxide every hour. To minimize the impact on your home, it's important to opt for the stove that has a large flame picture with a generous window, a strong airwash system to keep the glass clear and a door with a removable handle for security and convenience.

The Chilli Penguin Defrost
This 4.7kW stove can be used to defrost windows after a winter walk or to cook an evening meal for the entire family. This Ecodesign and DEFRA-exempt Stovax product uses three different features in its new clean burn system to attain its high efficiency. Combining secondary heat retention glazing, combustion jets, and air flow diverts, it helps to keep the internal temperature high, resulting in an even more complete combustion of fuel gases. 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 view the flame. There is a choice of coloured handles and an angled chrome pedestal to suit your interiors. This top loading stove has an enormous flat surface for placing kettles and pans.
The Pengiun as with all Stovax stoves have passed all required tests and inspections. It is only suitable to burn wood and smokeless fuels that have been approved by DEFRA. If you burn fuels that are not approved by DEFRA you could face fines of up to PS1,000 per hour based on the amount of particles released into air.
This is achieved with an innovative clean burning system that has been upgraded to incorporate a new pre-heated air feed that is introduced into the combustion chamber via jets and channels that are above the fire. The pre-heated air is used to ignite the volatile gases that are produced by the fuel, resulting in a better burn and a reduction in harmful emissions. It also introduces an air wash, or cushion of air, which is directed towards the glass, which gives you an improved view of the flames.
This combination of systems ensures that the new Penguin stove meets the strictest emission standards and is classified as an "Ecodesign" stove. It emits less than 20 mg/m3 of carbon dioxide if you burn wood and 16 mg/m3 when you use smokeless fuels.
