Technical description
Fireplace stoves are intended for installation into various interiors (apartments, recreation buildings,
restaurants). Romotop spol. s r.o. fireplace stoves are manufactured from quality construction materials – cast
metal, CORTEN steel and quality construction and fittings steel, with stressed parts made of HARDOX steel.
The surface of steel constructions is protected by a refractory opaque paint. Refractory paints are not anti-
corrosive. The combustion chamber of full-plate fireplace stoves is padded by removable chamotte desks, which
are not connected by any paste material to prevent damage by heat dilatation. The combustion chamber can be
firmly closed by doors with special heat-resistant glass. The glass not only increases the aesthetics of the
flickering flames, but also facilitates pleasant heat radiation. The glass also prevents the sparks from the burning
wood and smoke from entering the room. The floor of the combustion chamber is usually equipped with a
removable cast-iron grate. Usually, a barrier, or alternatively a sheet metal or ceramic mould, is placed in front
of the grate to prevent the fuel falling and sliding onto the doors (front window). Grate fireplaces include room
for an ashpan under the grate. Some types allow custom-configuration of the flue pipe throat for top- or back-
side exhaustion. The fireplace stoves are manufactured with dual coating. The area between the coatings is used
for air heating. The upper part of the outer coating includes vents for the heated air. The outer coating may
include ceramics or stone to highlight the design and improve the heat accumulation properties of the fireplace
stove. Some types of fireplace stoves have adapted the double-coating construction to heat warm service water
with an optional connection to the standard heating system. These fireplace stoves may be equipped with a
cooling loop to avoid overheating in case of power outages.
Fireplace stoves equipped with a separate intake of primary and secondary combustion air include the
appropriate control elements. The primary air is taken to the burning fuel (usually through the ashpan and grate)
and is used for primary combustion. The secondary air supports combustion of residual combustible gases in the
exhaust, increasing the output of the heater and significantly reduces the amount of pollutants escaping into the
atmosphere. The secondary air is mostly taken to the area above the burning fuel. Its presence causes the cold
air to roll around the inner side of the front glass. This process simultaneously prevents the blackening of the
front glass. The secondary air also participates in the primary combustion process when the primary air intake is
partially or completely sealed. Keep the primary air intake fully open at the beginning of the combustion
process, when the chimney draft is still weak. After the chimney heats up, you can partially or even completely
close the primary air intake, based on the target output of the fireplace stove. It is also possible to reduce the
fueling or limit the chimney draft by attaching a smoke shutter (a manual shutter in the flue pipe limiting the air
intake to at most
75%
) to reduce the output of the fireplace stove. This is recommended especially for chimney
draft around and above
20Pa
. The secondary damper is intended to fully close the stove when it is not in
operation. The fireplace and ashpan covers must always be closed except for starting operation, adding fuel and
removing solid combustion remnants to prevent exhausts entering the room.
Some fireplace stoves are equipped with a heat accumulation exchanger, improving the efficiency of the
fireplace stoves and maximally utilizing the fuel energy.
