Why Buy Modern Wood Stoves?
Newer doesn’t always mean better-but in the case of the modern wood stove, it absolutely does.
Advanced wood burning stoves, designed after the early ‘90s and certified by the EPA, are approximately one third more efficient than the old pot belly stoves. That means one third less money spent on firewood-or one third less sweat if you harvest your own. This makes the new-model stove a winner in both environmental and economical terms. Here’s a quick summary of the benefits contemporary wood stoves provide.
Economical Technology
On the front end, the advanced technology of newer stoves costs about $200 per. However, as a home owner, you’ll more than recoup those costs in just two seasons of use. After that, wood stoves will save you money hand over fist.
Smokeless Safety
Today’s stoves produce 90 percent less smoke than the older models. This means no visible smoke-no thick, choking fumes, no smell. In addition, it means 90 percent less creosote, a flammable substance that builds up in chimneys. This means less cleaning and virtually no risk of chimney fires-still more time and money saved.
Fuel Efficiency
Using advanced wood burning stoves, you’ll light fires more easily and burn wood more completely. This means less ash, a smaller environmental footprint, greater efficiency, and greater ease of use.
Wood Stove Chic
Finally, newer wood burning stoves pay off on in terms of aesthetics too. These stoves feature clean lines, designer colors, and metal and enamel surfaces, as well classic cast iron models. These modern stoves incorporate self-cleaning glass panels, which means that you can monitor the fire for quick adjustments. But even better, you get a front row seat to enjoy the beauty of a perfect blaze. Let’s face it: Fires are made to be seen, not just felt.
New-model wood stoves create an incomparable experience of radiant heat that fully engages the senses.

Peter, the pewter wood stove pictured above is made by Firebelly, a UK manufacturer. Firebelly stoves have a great mod sensibility about them…clean lines, contemporary styles.
