The Chilli Penguin Defrost
The name implies, this 4.7kW stove is designed to defrost windows after a wintry walk or simply cook the family meal. This Ecodesign and DEFRA-exempt Stovax product has three distinct 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, resulting in an even more complete burning of the fuel gases. This results in lower harmful emissions and reduces the amount of particulates released into the atmosphere.
The result is an efficient stove with a large glass window to view the flame. There are a variety of colored handles and a chrome pedestal that is curved to suit your interiors. This top-loading stove comes with a large flat surface for placing pans and kettles.
Like all stoves built 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 burn unauthorised fuels then you could be punished up to PS1,000 per hour for the amount of particulates that are released into the atmosphere.
This is accomplished with the new clean burning system that has been improved to include a new pre-heated air feed that is introduced into the combustion chamber through jets and channels above the fire. The gas that is pre-heated ignites the volatile gases released by the fuel, leading to a complete burn with fewer harmful emissions. It also creates an air cushion which is directed towards the glass, also known as an air wash, to give you a clear 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 when burning wood, and less than 16 mg/m3 when burning smokeless fuels.
