The Huntingdon
A large wood stove can be a wonderful addition to any home. It's also a great way to heat your home, especially when it's well-engineered with high seasonal efficiency. New log burners must comply with strict health and environmental standards, including limiting smoke emission up to 5g carbon monoxide every hour.

Stovax's Huntingdon is a large traditional stove that meets all the requirements. The dedicated wood burning and multifuel models are both DEFRA exempt stoves.

The Chilli Penguin Defrost
The name implies, this 4.7kW stove is designed to defrost windows after a winter walk or cook a family meal. This Ecodesign- and DEFRA-exempt Stovax product uses three different features in its brand 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 and thereby allowing for a more complete combustion of gasses that fuel the engine. This helps reduce harmful emissions and also reduces the amount of particulates released into the air.
The result is a highly efficient stove that also has an impressively large glass window that really lets you see the fire inside. There is a choice of handles in different colors and a curved chrome pedestal to suit your interiors. This top-loading stove boasts a wide flat surface that you can place kettles and pans on.
Like all stoves made by Stovax the Pengiun is compliant with the most recent Ecodesign regulations and has passed all the required tests and inspections. It can only burn wood and smokeless fuels approved by DEFRA. If you were to burn unauthorised fuels, you could be punished up to PS1,000 per hour for the amount of particulates that are released into the atmosphere.
This is accomplished by the new clean burn system that has been upgraded to include a new pre-heated air feed that is inserted into the combustion chamber through jets and channels above the fire. The pre-heated air is used to ignite the volatile gases created by the fuel, which results in a better burn and a reduction in harmful emissions. It also introduces an air wash, or cushion of air, which is directed at the glass to provide an improved view of the flames.
The combination of these systems ensures that the new Penguin meets the strictest emission limits and is classified 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.
