Clean Burning Technology

These stoves are able to be filled with logs or manufactured fuels, such as peat and coal. These stoves are usually capable of combusting both these types of fuel more effectively than traditional log burners. This is because multi-fuel stoves have been designed to burn a range of fuels.

The grate that is raised on stoves designed to burn various fuels is typically designed to allow air circulation beneath the fuel. This is because certain fuels such as peat and turf briquettes need plenty of air under for them to be ignited and burn properly. The majority of multi-fuel stoves feature a secondary airflow that can be opened or shut according to the type of fuel. This will help keep the fire going, by supplying additional air into the stove. It also increases the efficiency of combustion.

The primary and secondary air flow systems inside a stove are used to alter the flame height and the temperature of the fire. This is crucial since different types of fuel burn at different rates and will generate different amounts of heat. Maintaining the flame's height and temperature in check will ensure that your stove is running as efficiently as it can and generating the most amount of heat from its fuel.

You should also remove the ash from your stove regularly and place it in a bucket or pan. This will stop the accumulation of ash over the stove grates and hinder your fuel from burning properly.

The pellets are made of waste materials such as sawdust and other rejected wood products so this makes it a very environmentally friendly choice. The stoves come with a hotplate and an oven, which means they can be used for cooking too.

This is a great choice in cases where it's difficult to install a 6" (150mm), or if your chimney has a few odd bends.

Energy Efficiency

The combustion of fuels in a multifuel fireplace generates heat that is transferred to the room. This can be done by radiation, where the hot surface of a multifuel stove reflect heat back into the room and/or convection, when it draws in cold air from outside, heats it up, and then directs it to the room. Modern multifuel stoves are designed to maximize the efficiency of their heat output, by using secondary and tertiary sources to minimize emissions and burn fuel as efficiently as possible.
