The Huntingdon
A large wood stove is a great addition to any home. It is also a great heating option, particularly when it is engineered well and has a high seasonal efficiency. New log burners are required to meet strict environmental and health standards, such as limiting smoke emissions to 5g of carbon monoxide per hour. To minimize the impact on your home, choose the stove that has large flame pictures with a large window, as well as an airwash system which keeps the glass clean.
Stovax's Huntingdon is a large traditional stove that fulfills all the requirements. The wood burning and multifuel models are both DEFRA exempt stoves that come with an impressive heat output, a large viewing window to enjoy stunning views of flames and a unique, closable grates on the multi-fuel version to help you when planning to burn logs.

Additionally the Huntingdon comes with a second air control that allows you to control the heat of your fireplace. This means you can adjust it to operate at an even temperature, thereby decreasing the cost of fuel and reducing emissions.
The wood-burning versions of the Huntingdon feature a choice of either a plain or chancery arched door for added flexibility and the multi-fuel version is purchased with an external riddling kit for easier cleaning and maintenance. Both models are available with either a black or graphite finish, making them easy to match your existing decor.

The Chilli Penguin Defrost
Like the name suggests the 4.7kW stove is designed to defrost the windows after a winter walk or simply cook a family dinner. This Ecodesign- and DEFRA-exempt Stovax product incorporates three distinct features in its new clean burn system to attain its high efficiency. Combining secondary heat retention glazing, combustion jets, and air flow diverts helps to keep the internal temperature high and thereby allowing for a more efficient burning of fuel gases. This reduces harmful emissions, and also reduces the amount of particulates emitted in the atmosphere.
The result is an efficient stove with large glass windows to see the fire. There are a variety of coloured handles and a curved chrome pedestal to suit your interiors. This top-loading stove boasts a wide flat surface that you can place kettles and pans on.
Like all stoves manufactured by Stovax the Pengiun is compliant with the most recent Ecodesign regulations and has passed all the necessary tests and inspections. It can only be used to burn wood and smokeless fuels that have been approved by DEFRA. If wood burning stove in conservatory use fuels that are not authorised, you could be fined up to PS1,000 per hour based on the amount of particles released into air.
This is accomplished with the new clean burn system that has been upgraded to include an air supply that is pre-heated that is inserted into the combustion chamber through jets and channels that are above the fire. The gas that is pre-heated ignites the volatile gases produced by the fuel, resulting in an entire burn that produces less harmful emissions. It also introduces an air cushion that is directed at the glass, known as an 'air wash' to provide you with an unobstructed view of the flames.
The combination of these systems means that the new Penguin meets the strictest emission limits and is classified as an Ecodesign stove. It emits less than 20 mg/m3 of carbon dioxide when burning wood and 16 mg/m3 when using smokeless fuels.
