How They Work

Wood stoves are an excellent way to warm your home. They can be used to heat a room as a primary source or as a second source of heating. They also add style and ambiance to make any room feel more warm and inviting. Wood burning stoves create a controlled environment that lets the fire be more efficient in burning and generate heat.

This is done by directing air into the fire. This helps in regulating how quickly and effectively the fire burns. This is an important element in the overall efficiency of a outdoor woodburner stove made of wood because burning for too long is unable to provide energy and heat to the surrounding air. Modern wood stoves help to reduce this by directing the air into the firebox in various directions to keep the fire burning.

Many modern wood stoves also use a catalytic combustor to aid in achieving maximum efficiency. This is a metal piece, usually in a circular shape, which is positioned at the top of the wood stove, where the flue pipe is attached. It looks a lot like honeycombs made of metal and has pores in which the combustion gases from the wood are released. These gases are then burnt again at lower temperatures to release more heat.

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 gases around the catalyst during initialization. This allows the fire to be started more easily and also reduces some of the initial soot buildup on the catalyst's surface. This feature is common in both old and new stoves and increases the efficiency of heating wood stoves.
