The Technology
The Hampton 6.4kw boasts some of the lowest combined readings of hydrocarbons, CO and dust output of any wood burning double-sided stove sold in the UK. In response to the government’s initiatives to lower emissions from wood burning stoves, you can rest assured that you have one of the cleanest stoves for sale in the UK. This unrivalled clean burn has been achieved by the quality engineering exhibited in all Hampton models. All bodies are made from thick laser cut steel plate that is perfectly folded and welded together, ensuring no air can leak into the stove. This model includes a newly designed multi-fuel grate which opens and closes, allowing you to burn both wood and smokeless coal in the most efficient way.
The hidden gem of this stove is its internal shell – effectively another stove inside the stove, where air is drawn in from the stove’s base fed between two layers of steel either side of and precisely dispersed over the fire through a series of holes in the stoves twin layered baffle. Having the air introduced high up in chamber is an effective way of re-burning the initial smoke and pollutants created by the fire. The air that is not dispersed through these holes speeds up as it continues to rise through the twin layers until it is finally released like a curtain of air over the glass. This heating effect speeds the air up and is the most effective way of keeping the glass clean. This design is practical and truly wonderful to watch. The Hampton 6.4 is a multi-fuel stove, so includes a virgin ore grate and primary air flow too. The stove is also lined with thick 30mm vermiculite boards that protect the stoves shell and its internal steel baffle is removable for sweeping. Under the stove there is two simple push pull levers that gives an incredibly accurate degree of control over the fire as the vent plate is mechanically attached to the body. The Hampton has a 30mm thick virgin ore cast iron door that helps retain and slowly release the heat into the room in conjunction with the stoves thick steel body. As with all parts of the Hampton they are well designed and engineered but not over-complicated. Too often stoves have over-complicated system that do not stand the test of time and can be incredibly expensive and complicated to fix. Ecosy+ are so confident, they offer a 7 year warranty on this product.
This listing is the multi-fuel version, a wood burning only version of the Hampton 6.4 Double Sided is also available.
Crystal Clear Glass
As mentioned in the technology section, the air is drawn into the fire low down at the stoves rear. The air races up and over the stoves chamber increasing in speed as it travels until it is unveiled and drops like a curtain over the stoves glass. This can be seen in action on the video attached at the start of this listing. This system is proven to be a very effective way of keeping the glass clean and clear of smoke stains providing the wood burnt is well seasoned.
