Because a well-insulated newly built house cannot benefit from the rapid heat a wood-burning stove produces and a sauna effect is achieved. A newly built house requires approximately 2 kW per hour. A heated tile stove provides an average of 2 kW/hour throughout the day.
Thanks to the heat-storing material, the high weight, the ingenious duct system and the efficient cassette.
Yes, because they weigh the same, have the same efficient combustion technology and are made of the same material.
Nicer warmth, a more efficient fireplace and a beautiful “feel good” piece of furniture.
- Less wood consumption
- Better economy
- Better environmental values
A wood-burning stove provides about 5-7 kW when the fire is burning, and it cools down very quickly, which means that you get a “sauna effect”, i.e., too much heat for too short a time for the house and people to be able to absorb the heat. A fireplace that produces 2.5 kW/hour is optimal from an energy and comfort perspective: Higher than this is perceived as too hot. A properly fired tiled stove provides approximately 2kW/hour all day long.
The principle of the five flue ducts is the same. However, our newly manufactured tiled stoves are equipped with a combustion insert which not only has a larger glass door but also warms and spreads room air through the cassette. Another advantage of a newly manufactured tiled stove is that an Antik stove needs to be regularly dismantled and then rebuilt. This is to keep it airtight.
The advantage of a tiled stove compared to a wood-burning stove is that it gives off pleasant heat for a very long time. A tiled stove emits an average of 2 kW/hour and that is what we perceive as pleasant, anything more than that is perceived as too hot. With a wood-burning stove that provides about 5-7 kW when at its warmest and then cools off as fast as the fire, a sauna effect is achieved, i.e. it becomes very hot quickly. Then, you must ventilate the room for the temperature to be pleasant.
The more centrally it can be placed, the better, but this is not a must. With a fan mounted in the stove, the heat spreads well and you also get nice direct heat.
