The Huntingdon
A large wood burning stove is an excellent way to add a touch of classic character to any home. It's also a great method to warm your home, especially when it's well-engineered with a high efficiency during the winter months. New log burners have to meet strict standards for health and environmental protection that include limiting the emission of smoke to 5g carbon monoxide per hour. To reduce the impact on your home, opt for an appliance with a large flame picture with a large window, as well as an airwash system that ensures the glass is clean.
Stovax's Huntingdon is a huge traditional stove that meets all the requirements. The dedicated wood burning and multifuel models are both DEFRA exempt stoves. They offer an impressive heat output, a large viewing window to enjoy stunning views of flames and a unique closable riddling grates on the multi-fuel version for those occasions when you're wanting to burn logs.

They can be used in any room including country cottages to contemporary townhouses.

All Ecodesign stoves are made to the maximum of 5g CO2 per hour, which means that they are much less harmful than older models.

The Chilli Penguin Defrost
This 4.7kW stove can be used to defrost windows following an excursion in winter or to cook an evening meal for the entire family. This Ecodesign and DEFRA-exempt Stovax product incorporates three distinct features in its clean-burn system to ensure its high efficiency. A combination of secondary heat retention glazing, combustion air jets and air flow diversion help to keep the internal temperatures elevated, resulting in a much more complete combustion of the gas produced by the fuel. This, in turn, results in less harmful emissions and lowers the amount of particles that are released into the air.
The result is an efficient stove that has an enormous glass window to see the fire. There are a variety of handles in different colors and a chrome pedestal that is curved to suit your interiors. The top loading stove has a large flat surface to place kettles and pans on.
The Pengiun like all Stovax stoves, has passed all necessary tests and inspections. It can only be used to burn wood and smokeless firewoods that are approved by DEFRA. If you were to use unauthorised fuels, you could be punished up to PS1,000 per hour for the amount of particulates released into the atmosphere.
second hand wood burning stoves is accomplished through an innovative clean-burn system which has been upgraded with an air pre-heated feed which is introduced into the combustion chamber via channels and jets over the fire. The pre-heated gas is used to ignite the gaseous gases that are produced by the fuel, leading to an entire burn that produces less harmful emissions. It also introduces an air cushion that is directed at the glass, referred to as an air wash, to provide you with a clear 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 of carbon dioxide when burning wood, and less than 16 mg/m3 when burning smokeless fuels.
