Parkray Stoves are a breath of fresh air

Parkray stoves replacement parts

To describe Parkray Stoves (part of the Hunter Group) as a breath the fresh air is correct in so many different ways. This is a range of stoves which has been in the offing for more than 20 years and when launched it was certainly worth the wait. All Parkray Stove models can burn well-seasoned wood even for those living in smoke control areas. There are very few if any other stove manufacturers in the UK who can make such a promise. So, what makes Parkray Stoves so special?

Eye-catching designs

The beauty of a successful range of wood-burning/multifuel stoves is the ability to maintain a core style/design yet appeal to a broad range of potential customers. It is fair to say that the Parkray Stove range has a very distinct style, traditional look with a touch of contemporary, and appeals to a vast range of different people. We have the relatively small bodied wide screen stoves right up to the huge powerhouses which are double sided and double depth. The range of stoves shows that the company certainly has its finger on the pulse of consumer trends.

Tripleburn technology

Those who follow the stove industry in depth will be well aware of recent government announcements regarding emissions from all forms of combustion. There is some controversy with regards to wood-burning and multifuel stoves. Apparently the authorities feel it is acceptable to place them in the same group as open fires, however, that is a discussion for another day.

If you look at the company’s tripleburn technology, it is not difficult to see the huge benefits this is creating. The idea is simple; fuel is burnt, re-burnt and burnt again before the final emissions escape through the flue pipe. There are two main benefits to this, the fact that by re-burning fuel, whether this is wood or solid fuel, this maximises heat output and adds to efficiency ratings. Then there is the fact that in the second and third stages of the combustion process, it is partly gases which are being reignited. So, the more gas you can reignite, creating more heat, the less will remain behind to go up the flue pipe and into the atmosphere.

So, we have a win-win situation, extra heat and extra efficiency as well as a reduction in emissions, just what the government and regulators ordered!

Hot airwash system

Those who have yet to experience the benefits of a wood-burning/multifuel stove will probably not understand the importance of the now familiar hot airwash system. This is a system which creates a flow of hot air that brushes past the glass viewing area. This constant flow ensures that the glass is clear at all time allowing those in the vicinity to check out the flickering flames and the burning embers. This is extremely relaxing and allows you to enjoy the full benefits of the deep seated heat the range of Parkray Stoves creates.

Eco Design 2022

Many of the new Parkway Stoves are Eco Design 2022 compliant and even those that aren’t can still be used in smoke control areas. As we touched on above, not only the UK government but governments around the world have been critical of the emissions from an array of combustion activities. We can debate whether grouping wood-burning/multifuel stoves, with an efficiency of around 80%, with open fires were the efficiency is less than 30% is correct or not. However, this is not something the industry has taken likely and we have seen enormous advances in technology as a means of reducing emissions and making stoves more efficient.

Despite the fact that the UK is set to leave the European Union as a consequence of Brexit, it is inconceivable that the stove industry would not look to maintain the high standards already set. So, we can probably take it for granted that a similar tag will be created in the UK to ensure that all UK stoves are efficient and work on reduced emissions. This is something which has been ongoing for some time and while 2022 was the date when the new EU regulations come in, the reality is that the vast majority of stove manufacturers are already complying.
