Contemporary Wood Stoves

Historically homes were built around wood stoves, which provided an energy source for heating that has no impact on your electric bill. Modern stoves can be a beautiful addition to any home.

This DEFRA approved modern wood-burning stove combines a contemporary wood burning stove design with an environmentally friendly combustion system. It has an A + energy rating mark and can reach 5kW of power priced at around PS1,900.

How They Work

Wood stoves can be a great way to warm your home. They can be employed as a primary or supporting heating source, and they add an element of style that makes any space feel warmer and more inviting. The wood burning stoves create a controlled environment that allows the fire to be more efficient in burning and generate heat.

They do this by directing air over the fire, which helps to control the speed and effectively it burns. This is a major factor in the overall efficiency of a stove made of wood, as a fire that smolders for too long is unable to provide energy and heat to the air. Modern wood stoves are designed to reduce this by directing air into the firebox from different locations to ensure that the fire is burning in a proper manner.

A large majority of modern wood stoves have a catalytic combustion chamber to ensure maximum efficiency. It is a piece of metal, usually in a circular shape, which is positioned on top of the wood stove. It is where the flue pipe connects. It resembles a beehive, and has pores where the combustion gases are stored. These gases are then re-burned at lower temperatures to release more heat.

Other features in modern wood stoves are air bypass chambers. They are large flaps that are located in the interior of the firebox that can be opened to redirect flue gasses around the catalyst during initialization. This will help start the fire faster, and reduce the initial buildup of soot on the catalytic surface. This feature is common in both old and new stoves and increases the efficiency of heating for wood stoves.

Convection Chambers

To avoid having too much heat built up in your house you should consider having an air conditioner installed on your wood stove to aid in spreading the heat more evenly throughout your home.

Fireboxes

A wood stove's firebox is where magic occurs. It is the place where you burn wood and build the fire to create heat. This is the place where your stove spends most of the time when you make use of it. The fireboxes can be constructed of stainless steel or cast iron. Some modern stoves include a second skin that creates pockets hot air that are directly surrounding the fire, which allows the heated air to warm surrounding areas more quickly and effectively than other kinds of fireplaces or wood-burning heaters.

When the air in your fire gets heated and the water molecules within the wood are evaporated. This helps to fuel the flames. Then, it reaches temperatures of around 600 degrees Fahrenheit where it starts to burn off the carbon and tar that's contained in the wood. This decreases the amount of harmful gases released into the atmosphere and makes wood stoves more environmentally friendly.
