How They Work

Wood stoves are an excellent way to heat your home. They can be utilized to heat a room as a primary source or as supplementary heating. They also add style and ambiance, making any room feel more welcoming and warm. Wood stove Cooking burning stoves function by creating a controlled environment in which the fire can be more efficient in burning wood to produce heat.

They do this by directing air over the fire, which assists to control the speed and effectively it burns. This is a major aspect in the overall efficiency of a wood stove since a fire that smolders for too long is unable to provide energy and heat to the atmosphere. Modern wood stoves can help reduce this by directing the air into the firebox in a variety of directions to keep the fire burning.

Many modern wood stoves employ a catalytic combustion chamber to ensure maximum efficiency. It is a piece made of metal typically in a circular shape, that sits at the top of the wood stove. It is where the flue pipe connects. It appears a lot like honeycombs made of metal and contains pores where combustion gases from the wood are deposited. The gasses are then burnt again at lower temperatures to release more heat.

Air bypass chambers are a different feature that is found in modern wood stoves. These are large flaps that can be opened in the interior of a firebox to redirect flue gas around the catalyst when the wood stove is initially launched. This allows the fire to be started more easily and also reduces some of the initial soot buildup on the catalytic surface. This is a standard feature in both old and new stoves. It helps increase the efficiency of heating a wood stove.
