The Huntingdon
A large wood burning stove is an excellent way to add a touch of traditional charm to any home. It's also a great method to warm your home particularly when it's engineered with high seasonal efficiency. New log burners have to comply with strict health and environmental standards, such as limit the emission of smoke to 5 grams of carbon monoxide per hour. To minimize the impact on your home, it's crucial to select an appliance with a large flame with a large window, a robust airwash system to keep the glass clear and a movable door handle to ensure safety and ease of use.

The Chilli Penguin Defrost
This 4.7kW stove can be used to defrost windows following a winter walk or to cook meals for the whole family. 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 high, which results in a much more complete combustion of the gas produced by the fuel. This helps reduce harmful emissions and also reduces the amount of particulates emitted in the atmosphere.
The result is a powerful stove with an enormous glass window to view the fire. There is a choice of handles in different colors and a curved chrome pedestal to suit your interiors. The top loading stove comes with an enormous flat surface for placing kettles and pans.
Like all stoves built by Stovax and Stovax, the Pengiun complies with the latest Ecodesign regulations and has passed all required tests and inspections. It can only be used to burn wood and smokeless fuels that have been approved by DEFRA. If you burn fuels that are not approved by DEFRA you could be fined up to PS1,000 per hour based on the amount of particles released into air.
This is accomplished by a new clean-burn system which has been upgraded with an air-pre-heated supply that is introduced to the combustion chamber through channels and jets that are placed over the fire. The gas that is pre-heated ignites the gaseous gases that are produced by the fuel, leading to an entire burn that produces less harmful emissions. It also creates a cushion of air that is directed towards the glass, referred to as an 'air wash' to give you a clear 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 classified as an 'Ecodesign' stove. It emits less than 20 mg/m3 when it burns wood and emits less than 16 mg/m3 when burning smokeless fuels.
