Quattroflow Air Management System
Many Charnwood stoves come complete with a revolutionary air management system called Quattroflow Air Management system, patented by Charnwood. Using a number of air chambers, the right amount of air is spread around the stove for ultra-efficient burning and optimum control.
Converting Grate
Another unique piece of manufacturing included in Charnwood wood burning stoves is the converting grates, which can be altered to ensure the most efficient burning conditions.
Using a lever on the side of the stove, a series of grate bars can be set to lie in a closed flatbed position which provides optimum conditions for burning wood or can be opened for the ultra-efficient burning of smokeless fuels. This makes Charnwood Stoves perfect for those who want the option to burn different fuels in their stove.
Clean Burn Airwash
The Charnwood Country range of wood burning stoves includes the latest clean burn and air wash technology, ensuring you always have a clean and clear view of your fire. By carefully controlling and directing the air that enters the stove, it is possible to achieve optimum burning efficiency and reduce the amount of build-up and ash deposits that occur as a result.
