The Chilli Penguin Defrost

This 4.7kW stove can be used to defrost windows following a winter walk or to cook a meal for the family. This Ecodesign and DEFRA exempt Stovax product features a revolutionary clean burn system that has three distinct features that contribute to its remarkable efficiency. Combining secondary heat retention glazing, combustion jets and air flow diverts, it helps to maintain high internal temperatures, resulting in an even more complete combustion of gasses that fuel the engine. This results in lower harmful emissions and lowers the amount of the amount of particulates released into the air.

The result is an efficient stove that has large glass windows to view the fire. There are a variety of colored handles and a chrome pedestal that is curved to suit your interiors. The top wood burning stoves loading stove comes with an enormous flat surface for the placement of kettles and pans.

The Pengiun as with all Stovax stoves have passed all required tests and inspections. It can only be used to burn wood and smokeless fuels that have been approved by DEFRA. If you burn unauthorised fuels, you could be fined as much as PS1,000 per hour based on the amount of particles that are released into the air.

This is accomplished with a new clean combustion system that has been upgraded to incorporate a new pre-heated air feed that is inserted into the combustion chamber via jets and channels above the fire. The gas that is pre-heated ignites the volatile gases produced by the fuel, leading to an entire burn that produces less harmful emissions. It also introduces an air wash, or cushion of air, which is directed towards the glass, which gives you an improved view of the flames.

This combination of systems ensures that the brand new Penguin stove is compliant with the highest emission standards and is classified as an "Ecodesign" stove. It emits less that 20 mg/m3 if you burn wood, and 16 mg/m3 if you burn smokeless fuels.
