This also means that they have been carefully engineered to meet the stringent emission standards of 2022 set by Ecodesign which is a UK-backed EU regulation that aims to improve our air quality.

This is achieved by bringing in pre-heated secondary heat from the bottom of stove and regulating the rate of combustion with an air control. This allows for extremely low emission. With a DEFRA-approved Smoke Control Area exempt firebox and the ability to burn wood with up to 20% moisture content this is among the top large stoves that are available.

The Huntingdon

A large wood burner is the perfect way to add a bit of traditional charm to any home. It's also a great method to keep your home warm, especially when it's well-engineered with a high efficiency during the winter months. New log burners have to meet strict safety and environmental standards, for example, limiting smoke emissions to 5g of carbon monoxide per hour. To lessen the impact on your home, it's crucial to choose a stove that has a large flame image, a large window, a strong airwash system to keep the glass clear and a movable door handle for security and convenience.

Stovax's Huntingdon is a large traditional stove that fulfills all of these specifications. The wood-burning and multifuel versions are both DEFRA exempt stoves that come with the highest heat output as well as a large window for spectacular flame views and a unique closable riddling grille on the multifuel model for those times when you're planning to burn logs. Both models are available with a choice of transparent or a tracery door, which gives them a more Gothic look. They're suitable for any room, from country cottages and modern townhouses.

These stoves are extremely energy efficient and boast an A+ efficiency rating, ensuring that your fuel is used effectively. In addition to that, the Huntingdon comes with a second air control to allow you to regulate the heat of your fireplace. This means you can adjust it to operate at constant temperatures, thus decreasing the cost of fuel and reducing emissions.

The wood-burning versions of the Huntingdon offer either a plain or chancery arched door to provide customisability as well as the multi-fuel version can be purchased with an external riddling kit for easier cleaning and maintenance. Both models are available in graphite or black finish to match your existing decor.

All Ecodesign stoves are built to an emission limit of 5g CO2 per hour, which means that they are much less harmful than older models. This is a significant advancement as older stoves can release up to 20g of carbon dioxide an hour. This is detrimental to your health and increase the risk of developing respiratory problems.

As the name suggests, this 4.7kW stove is designed to defrost windows after a walk in the winter or cook the family meal. This Ecodesign- and DEFRA-exempt Stovax product has three distinct features in its clean-burn system to ensure its high efficiency. A combination of secondary heat retaining glazing and combustion air jets as well as air flow diversion assist to keep the internal temperatures high, resulting in a much more complete burn of the gases produced by the fuel. This helps reduce harmful emissions and also reduces the amount of particulates emitted in the atmosphere.

The result is an extremely efficient stove that also benefits from a stunningly large glass window that really lets you see the fire from inside. You can pick from a range of colors and the chrome pedestal matches your interior. This top-loading stove features a large flat surface to place kettles and pans on.

The Pengiun like all Stovax stoves has passed all the necessary tests and inspections. It can only be used for burning wood and smokeless fuels that have been approved by DEFRA. If you burn unauthorised fuels, you could be fined up to PS1,000 per hour for the amount of particulates that are released into the atmosphere.

This is accomplished by a new clean-burn system that has been upgraded with a pre-heated feed of air that is delivered to the combustion chamber via channels and jets over the fire. The gas that is pre-heated ignites the volatile gases released by the fuel, leading to a complete burn with fewer harmful emissions. It also creates an air wash, or cushion of air that is directed at the glass, which gives you an improved view of the flames.

The combination of these systems means that the new Penguin complies with the strictest emission limits and is classified as an  ecodesign stove. It emits less than 20 mg/m3 when it burns wood, and less than 16 mg/m3 when using smokeless fuels.

The Go Eco

Research has shown that old-style wood-burning stoves emit tiny sooty particles in the air. They are the main cause of poor air quality which has been linked to lung and heart problems, dementia and breathing issues. Newer models are DEFRA-approved and made to higher standards, so you can still enjoy a cozy fire in your home.
