The Huntingdon
A large wood burner is a great way to add a touch of classic character to any home. It's also a great heating option, especially if it is well-engineered and has a good seasonal efficiency. New log burners are required to meet strict environmental and health standards, including limit the emission of smoke to 5 grams of carbon monoxide per hour. To lessen the impact on your home, it's crucial to select a stove that has a wide flame picture with a generous window, an airwash system to keep the glass clear, and a removable door handle for safety and convenience.
The Huntingdon from Stovax is a large traditional stove that fulfills the requirements. The dedicated multifuel and wood-burning stoves both DEFRA exempt and have a high heat output.

The Chilli Penguin Defrost
The name implies, this 4.7kW stove is designed to defrost windows after a wintry walk or simply cook the family meal. This Ecodesign- and DEFRA-exempt Stovax product has three distinct features in its brand new clean-burn system to ensure its high efficiency. A combination of secondary heat-retaining glazing as well as combustion air jets and air flow diversion help to keep the internal temperatures elevated, resulting in a more complete burning of the gases produced by the fuel. This results in lower harmful emissions and less particles that are released into the atmosphere.
The result is an extremely efficient stove that also benefits from an impressively large glass window which allows you to see the fire from inside. There are a variety of colored handles and a curved chrome pedestal to complement your interior. This top loading stove has a large flat surface for placing pans and kettles.
Like all stoves built by Stovax and Stovax, the Pengiun is compliant with the most recent Ecodesign regulations and has passed all the necessary tests and inspections. It is only suitable for the purpose of burning wood or smokeless fuels that have been approved by DEFRA. If you use fuels that are not authorised you could face fines of up to PS1,000 per hour due to the amount of particles released into air.
This is accomplished by a new clean burn system that has been improved to include a new air supply that is introduced 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 creates a cushion of air that is directed towards the glass, known as an air wash, to provide you with a clear view of the flames.
This combination of systems guarantees that the brand new Penguin stove is in compliance with the most stringent 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.
