??? 2 WOODFIRE
The Woodfire Technical range Woodfire woodburning stoves use the latest combustion technology to achieve very high efficiencies and low emissions. The Woodfire Technical range of dedicated wood burners includes both freestanding and inset models, either with or without a boiler. Both single and double sided models are available and they can have side-opening or counterbalanced up-and-down doors.
Passiv l Woodfire Passiv The Woodfire Passiv is a boiler stove designed for the the modern well insulated UK home. The Passiv takes the technological advances of European-style inset boilers and applies them to a freestanding stove. 9kW to water is an ideal output for a modern home: enough to charge a thermal store with the next day’s domestic hot water, a little left over for space heating and of course the pleasure of natural wood flames to relax by in the living room.
CXC 12 l Woodfire CX freestanding boiler stoves These freestanding models have a high heat output to water and a low output to the room, making them perfect for a well-insulated, modern house. They can have 100% direct air and can be installed into a pressurised or open vented system. Having primary, secondary and tertiary combustion air makes them highly efficient and very clean burning.
RX 20 l Woodfire RX inset boiler stoves The Woodfire RX stoves, with a choice of eight different models, represent the widest choice of high-efficiency boiler stoves on the market today. With a three-sided firebox boiler as well as heat exchanger tubes above, they capture all the available heat and can pass it into a thermal store or directly into the heating circuit. All the models are firebricklined to ensure a high firebox temperature and thus a clean and efficient burn.
RX 30 Panorama l Woodfire RX Panorama inset boiler stoves The two RX Panorama models have the same high efficiency and big output to water as the rest of the RX range but give an even better view of the fire, with a door over a metre wide. This also gives you a wider firebox, allowing you to fit in both longer logs as well as more fuel at a single loading.
RX 30 DS l Woodfire RX double sided inset boiler stoves A double sided stove adds a whole new dimension to any house. Built into the party wall, inset double sided fires take the minimum of space and yet the boiler models are still capable of running the full central heating system and the domestic hot water as well as directly warming both rooms.
Evo 30 l Woodfire Evo inset boiler stoves The Evo models represent both the latest look in inset stoves, with frameless all-glass doors, and the latest in clean burning technology, with fully controllable primary, secondary and tertiary air feeds to the fire. 100% direct air taken from the outside, vermiculite firebox linings and efficiencies in excess of 80% all contribute to the Evos giving the most heat from the least wood.
Evo 20 LD l Woodfire Evo LD inset boiler stoves The Evo LD range, with their counterbalanced vertical lift doors, give the most contemporary look and are the easiest to use of all of the Woodfire Technical range. At the touch of a hand the door slides up to give a wide, easy loading facility and drops smoothly back down to seal the stove when you’ve finished putting in the logs.
RH 14 l Woodfire RH inset stoves This well designed stove can be built higher up in the wall to create a contemporary look or it can be set in a fire surround to give the best of both worlds – the feel of a traditional fireplace but without the draughts and loss of heat associated with an open fire. Utilising primary, secondary and tertiary air to the firebox, the RH 14 burns the wood cleanly, efficiently and effectively.
RH 21 LD Panorama l Woodfire RH LD inset stoves The vertical lifting door range gives the very best in woodburning inset stoves. RH lifting-door stoves have generously sized fireboxes, huge windows to see the flames through, a controllable, clean burning fire that has wonderful flame patterns – and all accessed through a counterbalanced up-and-down door.
RH 17 DS l Woodfire RH double sided inset stoves An RH double sided inset stove is a great way to make two rooms warm and snug with one fire or to create a wonderful central feature for a large room. An RH 21 DS Panorama gives a superb wide view of the fire and can be loaded with wood from either side. By using adjustable vents, the amount of heat going into each room can be controlled, depending on whether one or both rooms are in use, and warmth can also be ducted upstairs.
Sustainable fuel Heating our homes and businesses accounts for around half of the UK’s energy use and half of all our carbon emissions. With the threat of global warming, it is important that we start to move away from fossil fuels and towards a more environmentally friendly and sustainable energy. Wood is a local, renewable fuel that, when harvested from a sustainable source, is largely carbon neutral.
Chimney The correct chimney is a vital part of any stove installation. Woodfire stoves work at high efficiency levels, which means that little heat is lost up the chimney. For this reason the chimney needs to be well insulated to keep the flue gases flowing well and to reduce condensation of tar and water in the chimney. A new chimney should be made from pumice or prefabricated insulated stainless steel chimney sections. Pumice forms a highly insulating masonry chimney.
Installation chamber Woodfire inset models are installed into a chamber with an air gap around the stove. You can use an existing fireplace opening or create an entirely new chamber with Thermalux boards. Thermalux is fireproof, highly insulating and structural, making it quick and easy to construct the installation chamber for an inset stove. Vents are positioned below the stove, or on the sides of the chimney breast at the bottom, and others are placed near the top of the chamber.
Log boxes Woodfire stoves do not just look great, they also harness the power of wood allowing you to heat your whole home. Keeping a supply of logs close to your Woodfire is an excellent idea and the stacked logs provide a beautiful natural texture which can be used to great effect. Our log boxes make incoporating log storage into your design simple. There are two sizes available and they can be used vertically or horizontally.
Thermal storage A Woodfire boiler stove can be installed in an open vented or pressurised system and can power the heating and hot water needs of a whole house. They give around 80% of their heat to water and a mixture of radiant and convected warmth to the room. They can also be linked in with a conventional boiler and solar panels. As with all high-output boiler stoves, Woodfires work at their very best when linked to a thermal store.
System controller The system controller regulates the burning rate of the stove, turning it down if it is getting too hot, or up if it has started to cool. If you have a boiler stove then it will manage when the pumps turn on and when and where the heat goes – either to your central heating, your hot-water cylinder or to the thermal store. If there is a power cut then it can safely turn your boiler stove down.
