The Chilli Penguin Defrost
Like the name suggests, this 4.7kW stove is designed to defrost the windows after a walk in the winter or simply cook an entire family dinner. This Ecodesign and DEFRA exempt Stovax product is equipped with a brand new clean-burn system that incorporates three different features to achieve its excellent efficiency. A combination of secondary heat-retaining glazing, combustion air jets and 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 results in lower harmful emissions and less the amount of particulates released into the atmosphere.
The result is a powerful stove with a large glass window to view the fire. There's a selection of colored handles and an angled chrome pedestal to match your interior. This top loading stove also has a large flat surface that you can place pans and kettles on.
Like all stoves made by Stovax and Stovax, the Pengiun complies with the latest Ecodesign regulations and has passed all required tests and inspections. It can only be used to burn wood and smokeless fuels approved by DEFRA. If you burn unauthorised fuels you could be fined as much as PS1,000 per hour due to the amount of particles released into the air.
This is achieved by a new clean-burn system which has been upgraded with an air pre-heated feed that is introduced to the combustion chamber via channels and jets over the fire. The pre-heated air ignites the volatile gases produced by the fuel, resulting in a more complete burn and the reduction of harmful emissions. It also introduces an air wash, also known as a cushion of air that is directed towards the glass, which gives you better views of the flames.
The combination of these systems means that the new Penguin complies with the strictest emission limits and is classed as an 'Ecodesign' stove. It emits less that 20 mg/m3 of carbon dioxide if you burn wood and 16 mg/m3 when you use smokeless fuels.
