5. SPECIAL FEATURES CHESTER XTRA

Xtra heat storing technology

The model Chester Xtra has been equipped with the unique Xtra heat storing technology. This technology is based on the

patented Heat Memory System, but also on the special flue gas guidance and the convection air which can be regulated or

shut off completely. Consequently a fast heating system is being combined with an extraordinarily efficient heat storing.

The convection air can be regulated according to demand with the attached lever (see picture). The more the convection air

outlets of the top plate are open, the faster heat but less heat storing can be reached. A closed top plate will however lead to

slow heat and longer heat storing.

Konvektionsluftschieber = convection air lever

Our hint: while the fire still burns let the convection air outlets open; close them after the fire has burnt down in order to reach

a steady heat emission.

Operation with external air supply

The German institute for constructional engineering (DIBT) has given the Chester Xtra the general technical approval for

operation with external air supply.. If the combustion air is being supplied directly to the furnace by an air-tight pipe including

closing mechanism from the outside, then the stove may be used in residential property with mechanical ventilation.

If the stove in being used like that, a multiple stove installation on the same chimney is forbidden.

This stove has been approved by the German DIBT.
