The Huntingdon
A large wood stove can be a wonderful addition to any home. It's also a great option to warm your home particularly when it's engineered with high seasonal efficiency. New log burners have to meet strict safety and environmental standards, such as limiting smoke emissions to 5g of carbon monoxide per hour. To lessen the impact on your home, it's important to opt for a stove that has a large flame image, a large window, a strong airwash system to keep the glass clean and a movable door handle for safety and convenience.
The Huntingdon from Stovax is a large, traditional stove that meets these requirements. The wood-burning and multifuel models are both DEFRA exempt stoves. They offer an impressive heat output as well as a large window for spectacular flame views and a unique, closable grille on the multifuel model to help you when wanting to burn logs. Both models are available with a choice of clear or a tracery glass door which provides them with a more gothic look. They can be used in any room that includes country cottages as well as modern townhouses.
These stoves are incredibly efficient in terms of energy consumption and boast an A+ efficiency rating, which means that your fuel will be used effectively. The Huntingdon also features a secondary air-control, which lets you set your fireplace to a continuous state of operation, reducing the cost of fuel, as well as reducing emissions.

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

The Chilli Penguin Defrost
This 4.7kW stove can be used to defrost windows after a winter walk or cook a meal for the family. This Ecodesign and DEFRA-exempt Stovax product uses three different features in its new clean burn system to attain its high efficiency. Combining secondary heat retention glazing, combustion jets and air flow diverts, it helps to maintain high internal temperatures, resulting in an even more efficient burning of fuel gases. This reduces harmful emissions, and also reduces the amount of particulates released in the atmosphere.
The result is a highly efficient stove that also benefits from a stunningly large glass window that really lets you see the fire inside. You can choose from a variety of colours and the chrome pedestal will complement your interior. This top loading stove also has a large flat surface that you can place kettles and pans on.
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 were to burn non-approved fuels, you could be punished up to PS1,000 per hour for the amount of particulates released into atmosphere.
This is accomplished with an innovative clean burning system that has been improved to include a new air supply that is introduced into the combustion chamber through channels and jets above the fire. The pre-heated gas is used to ignite the gaseous gases that are produced by the fuel, resulting in a complete burn with fewer harmful emissions. It also introduces an air wash, also known as a cushion of air, that is directed towards the glass to give you better views of the flames.
The combination of these systems ensures that the new Penguin complies with the strictest emission limits and is classed as an ecodesign stove. It emits less than 20 mg/m3 of carbon dioxide if you burn wood, and 16 mg/m3 if you burn smokeless fuels.
