This Ecodesign and DEFRA-exempt Stovax product incorporates three distinct features in its clean-burn system to ensure its high efficiency. Combining secondary heat retention glazing, combustion jets and air flow diverts helps to maintain high internal temperatures and thereby allowing for a more complete combustion of fuel gases. This results in lower harmful emissions and less particulates that are emitted into the atmosphere.

If you burn unauthorised fuels then you could be fined up to PS1,000 per hour for the amount of particulates released into atmosphere.
This is accomplished by the new clean combustion system that has been improved to include an air supply that is pre-heated which is introduced into the combustion chamber via jets and channels that are above the fire. The pre-heated air ignites the volatile gases created by the fuel which results in a more complete burn and a reduction in harmful emissions. It also creates an air cushion which is directed towards the glass, referred to as an air wash, to provide you with an unobstructed view of flames.
