This DEFRA-approved contemporary wood-burning stove comes with modern design and an efficient combustion system that is green and eco-friendly. It has an A+ energy rating and can attain 5kW power. Priced at PS1,900, it comes in a variety of colours.
How They Work
Wood stoves can be an excellent way to warm your home. They can be utilized to heat a room as a primary source of heat or as a second source of heating. They also add style and ambiance and make any space feel more warm and inviting. Wood burning stoves create a controlled environment in which the fire can be more efficient in burning wood to generate heat.
This is done by directing air into the fire. This helps determine how quickly and efficiently the fire is burning. This is an important aspect in the overall effectiveness of a wood stove, as burning for too long is unable to provide energy and heat to the surrounding air. Contemporary wood stoves are designed to reduce this by directing air into the firebox from different points to ensure that the fire is kept burning properly.
Many modern wood stoves employ a catalytic combustion chamber to maximize efficiency. It is a piece of metal, typically circular in form, that is placed at the top of the stove, where the flue pipe connects. It looks like a metal beehive and has pores in which the combustion gases are placed. These gases are then re-burned to release heat at lower temperatures.
Air bypass chambers are another characteristic of modern wood stoves. They are large flaps that can be opened within the interior of a firebox to redirect flue gas around the catalyst when the wood stove is first started. This can help to begin the fire more quickly, and reduce the initial accumulation of soot on the catalyst's surface. This feature is common in both new and old stoves, and can increase the efficiency of heating wood stoves.
Convection Chambers
Wood stoves are the perfect addition to any outdoor living space, whether you live in a rustic log cabin or a prefabricated tiny house. These time-tested heating devices are not just a source of warmth and ambience to your living space but also provide an alternative to fossil fuels. Here's how they work.
Modern wood stoves are extremely energy efficient, thanks to technological innovation. The second skin creates air pockets around the "firebox" or main compartment. The cool air from the room is drawn into the pockets and released at the top of the stove when it becomes warm. This allows the room to be heated more quickly.
Many modern wood stoves are constructed of sheet iron, a substance that heats and cools quickly and is more malleable than cast iron. This makes for an enduring and elegant stove that is ideal for modern homes. Additionally, sheet iron is more eco-friendly than cast iron since it doesn't generate nearly the amount of harmful emissions.
If you're considering buying a new wood stove ensure that it is catalytic and EPA-certified. This kind of stove burns more evenly and produces less pollutants than non-catalytic stoves. The longer the fire burns, the less wood you'll need.
A wood stove isn't the most efficient method of heating your home. However it can be an excellent back-up plan in the event of an emergency. To avoid having too much heat built in your home, consider having a blower fitted to your wood stove that will help distribute the heat evenly throughout your home.
Fireboxes
A wood stove's firebox is where the magic happens. It's where you burn wood and build the fire to create heat. This is also where your stove spends most of its time when you make use of it. These fireboxes are constructed of different materials, including stainless steel and cast iron. Modern stoves often have an additional skin that creates pockets of heated air that are placed directly around the fire. This allows the heated air to be able to heat the surrounding area more quickly and efficiently than any other fireplace or wood-burning heating device.
Contemporary wood stoves aren't just for rustic cabins in the mountains anymore, they are now a part of many homes. A wood stove can be an amazing decoration piece for any space, making it feel warm and inviting. Wood stoves aren't intended to be the primary or sole source of heat.
