The Huntingdon

A large wood burning stove is a great way to add a bit of classic character to any home. It's also a great way to heat your home particularly when it's engineered with good seasonal efficiency. New log burners must to meet stringent safety and environmental standards, such as limit the emission of smoke to 5 grams of carbon monoxide per hour.

The Chilli Penguin Defrost

Like the name suggests, this 4.7kW stove is designed to defrost windows after a wintry walk or to cook the family meal. This Ecodesign and DEFRA exempt Stovax product is equipped with a brand new clean burn system which has three distinct features to ensure its excellent efficiency. A combination of secondary heat-retaining glazing as well as combustion air jets and air flow diversion assist to keep the internal temperatures high, which results in a much more complete burn of the gases generated by the fuel. This results in lower harmful emissions and less the amount of particulates released into the atmosphere.

The result is a powerful stove that has large glass windows to view the fire. You can pick from a variety of colors and an elegant chrome pedestal that matches your interior. The 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 firewoods that are approved by DEFRA. If you burn fuels that are not approved by DEFRA you could be fined as much as PS1,000 per hour due the amount of particles released into air.

This is achieved with the new clean combustion system that has been improved to include a new pre-heated air feed which is introduced into the combustion chamber through jets and channels that are above the fire. The pre-heated gas ignites the volatile gases produced by the fuel, resulting in the complete combustion process with less harmful emissions. It also introduces a cushion of air which is directed towards the glass, referred to as an air wash, to provide you with an unobstructed view of flames.

This combination of systems ensures that the brand new Penguin stove is compliant with the highest emission standards 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 use smokeless fuels.
