This DEFRA approved modern wood-burning stove combines a contemporary design with an eco-friendly combustion system. It is rated with an A+ energy rating mark and can produce 5kW of power, priced from PS1,900.

How They Work

Wood stoves are the ideal way to heat your home. They can be used to heat a room as a primary source of heat or as supplementary heating. They also add style and ambiance, making any room feel more welcoming and warm. Wood burning stoves create an environment that is controlled so that the fire can be more efficient in burning wood to generate heat.

This is done by directing air towards the fire. This allows you to control how quickly and efficiently the fire is burning. This is a crucial factor in the effectiveness of a stove since a fire which smolders too long will deplete energy and heat into the air. Modern wood stoves help reduce this by directing the air inside the firebox in various directions to keep the fire burning.

Many modern wood stoves employ a catalytic combustion system to aid in achieving maximum efficiency. It is a piece metal, typically circular in form, that is placed at the top of the stove where the flue pipe connects. It appears a lot like honeycombs made of metal and contains pores where combustion gases from the wood are released. The gases are then burned again to release more heat at lower temperatures.

Air bypass chambers are yet another feature found in modern wood stoves. They are large flaps that can be opened within the inside of a firebox in order to redirect flue gas around the catalyst when the wood stove first launched. This allows the fire to start more quickly and also reduces some of the initial buildup of soot on the catalytic surface. This is a common feature in both new and old stoves. It helps improve the efficiency of heating in the wood stove.

As the air in your fireplace heats up, it vaporizes the water molecules contained in the wood that help provide fuel to the flames. Then, it reaches temperatures of around 600 degrees Fahrenheit and starts to burn off the carbon and tar contained in the wood. This reduces the amount of harmful emissions released into the air which makes wood stoves more sustainable than traditional ones.
