Modern Wood Burners
Modern wood burners are a blend of stylish designs, efficient heating and ecological considerations. They can be a great addition to any house and offer an alternative source of heating in the event of power failures.
They are more efficient at heating rooms than fireplaces and emit less harmful gases. However wood stoves can release up to six times more particle pollution than modern diesel cars.

The Focus Grappus
The Focus Grappus wood burner is designed to draw attention to the fire. The glowing flames are the highlight of the show. Focus Design has designed sleek black stoves that focus the focus on the glowing flames. While many wood burners are designed to be efficient but Focus has taken the opposite strategy. The company's fireplaces are a staple in some of the most elegant interiors around the world, and they've won 25 of the most prestigious design awards.
The heart of the Focus creation is a contemporary tall flame view window held aloft on either side of the flue with an elegant wood storage unit that gives a stunning visual harmony to the design. This view of the tall flame, which is the hallmark of the Focus range, is customizable to suit your needs and preferences, including various sizes of flues.

The Grappus also offers the choice of wood-burning or natural gas power. The Grappus's insulation is comprised of three layers, with the middle is a glass layer that protects from the heat generated by the fire. The outer layers are designed for the heat to be absorbent by the combustion process and then distributed evenly throughout the entire space. This will ensure the most comfortable and efficient heating experience and also helps minimise the effects of condensation on the interior of the glass.
The Grappus is a perfect blend of style and performance and it's available with a heat output of 3 - 8kW when using wood and up to 5.1 4 kW when you use natural gas. It's also EcoDesign compliant and a great option for anyone seeking a stylish efficient, efficient and energy-efficient wood burning stove.
The Round Stack
There are a variety of styles of wood stoves available on the market today. Whether you are looking for something that adds an earthy, rustic appeal to your home, or one that is more contemporary and sleek, there is sure to be a stove that will meet your requirements. Modern stoves are not only beautiful but also more efficient than traditional heating methods.
The proper stacking of logs is crucial when preparing them for burning in a stove. This will ensure that they stay dry and ready to burn. By leaving space between the logs and keeping their ends even facilitates airflow, which is key to ensure that your wood dries effectively. Additionally, shielding the logs from weather by storing them in tarps or in specialized structures helps in drying and preserving their quality.
The round stack method of stacking firewood is a popular method that is easy to master and looks stunning. Create a base by laying out three to four rows of treated 2x4s, or pallets. Then, build the pillars at the end on top of the base by placing 3-4 pieces of wood on top of each other, and then putting another piece on the opposite side with bigger gaps at each end. Continue to build the pillars until the stack is 12 rows high, ensuring that there is plenty of space between each pillar so that air can flow easily throughout the entire pile.
Then, use a center stake to keep the stack upright and begin adding perpendicular pieces on the outside of the stack, and then tie them together in the middle using string. Repeat this process until you reach the height you want for your wall. You can then complete the interior with odd-looking pieces and those pieces that are too big for the outer rows. Indoor stacking requires an area with a good airflow and plenty of sunlight. Overcrowding can result in damp and moldy wood. The best place to stack indoors is usually an unfinished basement or garage.

The Short Penguin Eco by Chilli Penguin is a great example of a wood burner that is green. Its sleek lines and sturdy construction make it a fantastic option for those who want a bit of traditional style or modern homes. The 5kw multi-fuel stove can burn both wood and smokeless fuel.

The stove is equipped with three innovative clean burn features to achieve low emissions and over 80% efficiency. The stove makes use of secondary heat retention glazing as well as combustion jets, and airflow diversion. The result is a highly efficient stove that can also be used in smoke-control zones.
Fireplaces And Stove is the smallest in the domestic range. It has the advantage that it can be fitted to a wall with the addition of a plinth or log store. The design is sleek and modern with stainless steel handles. This is a kitchen appliance that you'll be delighted to return home to.
Another way to cut down on your carbon footprint is to use kiln-dried or seasoned wood. This wood has been dried down to less than 20 percent moisture, which decreases the amount of smoke produced when it is roasted. Even if your wood stove is extremely efficient, it could still release many emissions if not attentive.
