A large wood burner is an excellent way to add a bit of traditional charm 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 are required to comply with strict environmental and health standards, including restricting smoke emissions to 5g of carbon monoxide per hour. To reduce this impact on your home, it's crucial to select a stove that has a wide flame image, a large window, a strong airwash system to keep the glass clean and a movable door handle for security and convenience.

The Huntingdon from Stovax is a huge traditional stove that fulfills the specifications. The wood burning and multifuel models are both DEFRA exempt stoves and offer an impressive heat output, a large viewing window for spectacular flame views and a unique, closable grate on the multi-fuel variant to help you when planning to burn logs.

The Chilli Penguin Defrost

As the name suggests, this 4.7kW stove is designed to defrost windows after a walk in the winter or to cook an entire family meal. This Ecodesign and DEFRA exempt Stovax product uses a new clean burn system that has three distinct features to ensure its remarkable efficiency. Combining secondary heat retention glazing, combustion jets and air flow diverts help to maintain high internal temperatures and thereby allowing for a more complete combustion of fuel gases. This, in turn, results in less harmful emissions and reduces particles that are released into the air.

The result is an extremely efficient stove that also comes with a stunningly large glass window that really lets you see the fire from inside. There are a variety of handles in different colors and a chrome pedestal that is curved to match your interior. This top loading stove also boasts a wide flat surface for kettles and pans on.

Like all stoves built by Stovax, the Pengiun complies with the latest Ecodesign regulations and has passed all the necessary tests and inspections. It can only burn very small wood burning stove and smokeless fuels approved by DEFRA. If you burn unauthorised fuels, you could be fined up to PS1,000 per hour based on the amount of particles released into air.

This is accomplished by the new clean combustion system that has been upgraded to include an air supply that is pre-heated that is introduced into the combustion chamber through channels and jets above the fire. The pre-heated gas is used to ignite the volatile gases produced by the fuel, resulting in an entire burn that produces less harmful emissions. It also creates an air wash, also known as a cushion of air, that is directed at the glass, which gives you an improved view of the flames.

The combination of these systems ensures that the new Penguin is in compliance with the most stringent emission limits and is classed as an ecodesign stove. It emits less than 20 mg/m3 when it burns wood, and less than 16 mg/m3 when burning smokeless fuels.
