Esse 301 DEFRA multifuel inset stove

The beauty of a real fire combined with 21st century technology make the ESSE 301 DEFRA series inset convector stoves a desirable option for many people. This multi-fuel stove uses wood effectively, but also excels with smokeless fuels such as peat, turf and anthracite.An old-fashioned stove heats by radiation, leaving hot and cold spots, but ESSE has pioneered the convection type, blowing heated air evenly throughout the room in a continuous stream. Cool air enters the stove from the bottom and then exits as heated air from the top of the stove. The firebox itself is inside an outer casing, resulting in a much more efficient stove as more of the heat is circulated into the room instead of being wasted up the chimney.Featuresfits into a standard fireplace may be used with class 1 chimneys designed for continuous and overnight burning Additional air vents are generally not needed Output ranges up to 5 kW/hour The flame is viewed through a decorative glass door, with a choice of either a clear or cross pattern.
