The secret regarding why we experience the effect of fire as so pleasant has a name: radiant heat. Fireplaces and stoves in the home also emit radiant heat. This creates a healthy wellness climate.
Of course, no one wants to go without the comfort of a fully temperate house any more, which is why central heating will continue to be necessary. More and more people nevertheless are once again availing themselves of the positive effect of radiant heat with a modern fireplace or stove. This acts directly on the body, without unnecessarily heating the air. You can also enjoy a superior atmospheric environment with a modern fireplace or stove, and take pleasure in the wonderful play of flames, which the stove door with a large window made from SCHOTT ROBAX® glass ceramic offers you. You couldn't get that on grandfather’s stove.
A wellness climate through closed stovesIn an open stove, wood burns out of control because of the flow of air. Furthermore, an unpleasant draft is created by the cold air flowing out. With a closed stove, however, the flow of air can be controlled and the combustion can be controlled too, meaning no air flow is created. A fireplace with a glass-ceramic panel also has a far higher efficiency than an open one - ideal for large rooms. Modern fireplaces can heat extremely heat-insulated new buildings much better than one might even like. Here, ultra-thin coated ceramic glass windows help. They reflect the warmth so that the surrounding area is heated more slowly and, therefore, more pleasantly.
ROBAX® Energy PlusGlass-ceramic panels with a special coating reflect up to 35% of the heat radiation back into the combustion chamber. There remains a pleasant emission of heat in the room and the additionally gained energy in the interior of the fireplace can be used for storage. In addition, higher temperatures in the combustion space mean that the combustion is much less polluting (which further reduces the polluting effect of the window). Glass ceramic with a heat reflecting coating is also important for protecting furniture or curtains close to the stove from excessive heat. The most innovative product for this effect is called ROBAX® Energy Plus. It comes in both flat and, for the first time, curved shapes and is, of course, available in numerous sizes. For maximum thermal insulation, the initial stove models are also available with double glazing. This means the fire burns even better without losing any heat or making the room too warm.
