The Huntingdon
A large wood stove is an excellent addition to any home. It's also a great option to keep your home warm and is especially effective when it's designed with good seasonal efficiency. New log burners are required to comply with strict safety and environmental standards, for example, limit the emission of smoke to 5 grams of carbon monoxide per hour. To reduce this impact on your home, it's essential to choose an appliance that has a large flame image, a large window, a robust airwash system to keep the glass clear and a movable door handle for safety and convenience.

All Ecodesign stoves are manufactured to a 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 a winter walk or cook meals for the whole family. This Ecodesign and DEFRA-exempt Stovax product incorporates three distinct features in its brand new clean burn system to achieve its high efficiency. A combination of secondary heat-retaining glazing, combustion air jets and air flow diversion assist to keep the internal temperatures elevated, resulting in a more complete burning of the gases produced by the fuel. This in turn produces lower harmful emissions and lowers the amount of particles that are released into the atmosphere.
The result is an efficient stove that has large glass windows to view the fire. You can choose from a variety of colors and the chrome pedestal matches your interior. This top-loading stove comes with an enormous flat surface for placing kettles and pans.
The Pengiun, like all Stovax stoves 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 you burn unauthorised fuels, you could be punished up to PS1,000 per hour for the amount of particulates released into the atmosphere.
This is accomplished by a new clean-burn system that has been upgraded with an air pre-heated feed which is introduced into the combustion chamber through channels and jets that are placed over the fire. The pre-heated air ignites the volatile gases that are produced by the fuel which results in a more complete burn and a reduction in harmful emissions. It also creates an air cushion which is directed towards the glass, referred to as an 'air wash' to give you an unobstructed view of the flames.
The combination of these systems ensures that the new Penguin meets the strictest emission limits and is classified as an ecodesign stove. It emits less that 20 mg/m3 of carbon dioxide if you burn wood, and 16 mg/m3 if you burn smokeless fuels.
