Wood stoves were traditionally used as a primary source of heating in homes. They don't affect your electric bill. Modern stoves can be a beautiful addition to any home.

This modern DEFRA-approved wood-burning stove comes with modern design and an efficient combustion system that is extremely green. It comes with an energy rating of A+ and can reach 5kW of power. The price is around $1,900 and it comes in a range of colors.

How They Work

Wood stoves are the ideal way to heat your home. They can be utilized to heat a room as a primary source or as supplementary heating. They can also provide ambiance and style, making any room feel more welcoming and warm. Wood burning stoves create a controlled atmosphere which allows the fire to burn more efficiently and produce heat.

This is accomplished by directing air towards the fire. This helps determine how quickly and efficiently the fire burns. This is a crucial factor in the efficiency of a stove since a fire which smolders over a long period of time will lose energy and heat into the atmosphere. Contemporary wood stoves are designed to reduce this by directing air into the firebox through different places to ensure that the fire is kept burning efficiently.

Many modern wood stoves also make use of a catalytic combustor in order to assist in achieving maximum efficiency. It is a piece made of metal typically in a circular shape, that is placed at the top of the wood stove where the flue pipe connects. It resembles a beehive and has pores where the combustion gases are placed. These gases are then re-burned to release heat at lower temperatures.

Other features in modern wood stoves are air bypass chambers. These are large flaps within the interior of the firebox that can be opened to redirect flue gasses around the catalyst during initialization. This lets the fire be ignited more quickly and also reduces some of the initial buildup of soot on the catalytic surface. This feature is present in both old and new stoves and increases the efficiency of heating wood stoves.

Convection Chambers

No matter if you're living in a rustic, wooded cabin or a modern tiny house, there's nothing that pairs better with nature than a wood stove.

Modern wood stoves are extremely energy efficient, thanks to technological innovation. They have a second skin that creates air pockets directly around the main compartment, or "firebox."

The majority of modern wood stoves are made from sheet iron, a substance which is fast to cool and heat and is more malleable than cast iron. This results in a more durable and sleek stove that is ideal for modern homes. Sheet iron is also more environmentally friendly than casting iron, because it emits fewer harmful emissions.

If you are looking to purchase a brand new wood stove, make sure it is EPA-certified and catalytic. This type of wood stove produces more evenly and less pollution than non-catalytic stoves. You'll also go through less wood because the fire burns longer.

While wood stoves shouldn't be used as your sole source of heating, it can be an excellent backup to central heating systems that are modern in the event of an emergency. To avoid having too much heat built up in your home, consider having a blower installed with your modern wood stove to help distribute the heat evenly throughout your home.

Fireboxes

The firebox of a wood stove is where the magic occurs. It's where you build the fire and burn the wood to generate heat, and it is the place where your stove will spend the majority of its time when you are using it. The fireboxes are made out of cast iron or stainless steel. Some modern stoves feature a secondary skin which creates pockets of heated air that are placed directly around the fire. This lets the heated air heat surrounding areas more quickly and efficiently than any other fireplace or wood-burning heating device.


Wood stoves are becoming a staple in a variety of homes. They are no longer only for rustic cabins up in the mountains. A wood stove can be a stunning accent piece to any room that makes it feel warm and inviting.
