Both fireplaces and modern stoves are sophisticated units that generate heat through the combustion of raw material. This chemical process creates a warm and homey atmosphere. However, what are the differences between these two heating units?<\/span><\/p>\n First of all, both modules have two parts: the hearth, where the combustion process takes place, and the vertical duct, dedicated to expelling all the smoke and residues resulting from combustion. However, the architecture of the two is quite different.<\/span><\/p>\n Wood burning\u00a0<\/span><\/a>stoves<\/a> are usually made of cast iron or steel. This way, they deliver most of the heat to a single room. Thus, stoves do not have a covering and leave the evacuation tube exposed.<\/span><\/p>\n On the other hand, the hearth of fireplaces can be a simple metal box with ventilation, also called an insert or cassette fireplace, or it can be a cavity that includes refractory materials, that is, materials that withstand high temperatures without decomposing.<\/span><\/p>\n Furthermore, in fireplaces, the gas evacuation tube is always hidden through a hood or an embedded wall, thus discreetly distributing heat throughout our home.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n It’s not just an aesthetic issue, but a major difference in heat production and energy efficiency. Thanks to a panel or a glass door, the temperature inside the combustion chamber is increased.<\/span><\/p>\n Speaking in figures, an open fire has just a 15% efficiency, while a modern\u00a0<\/span>wood burning\u00a0<\/span>fireplace or stove reaches an energy efficiency of over 78%, allowing us to heat our home using less wood.<\/span><\/p>\n Also, a closed fire produces cleaner and more efficient combustion since the smoke is extracted through a labyrinth of tubes. An open fireplace<\/a> emits 15 times more CO2 than a closed one.<\/span><\/p>\n At Carbel<\/a>, we specialize in\u00a0<\/span>wood burning\u00a0<\/span>stoves, cassettes, and thermal fireplaces, offering a functional, effective product that matches current designs.

Gracias a este proceso qu\u00edmico conseguimos un clima c\u00e1lido y hogare\u00f1o<\/strong>. Sin embargo, \u00bfqu\u00e9 diferencias existen entre estas dos unidades de calefacci\u00f3n<\/strong>?\n\nPrimero de todo, ambos m\u00f3dulos cuentan con dos partes: el hogar, donde se realiza todo el proceso de combusti\u00f3n, y el conducto vertical, dedicado a dar salida a todos los humos y residuos fruto del proceso de la combusti\u00f3n. Sin embargo, la arquitectura de las dos es bien distinta.\n\nLas estufas de le\u00f1a<\/strong><\/a> suelen ser met\u00e1licas, de hierro fundido o de acero. De esta manera entregan la mayor parte del calor a una \u00fanica habitaci\u00f3n. As\u00ed, las estufas no cuentan con recubrimiento y dejan a la vista el tubo de evacuaci\u00f3n.\n\nPor otro lado, el hogar de las chimeneas puede ser una simple caja met\u00e1lica con ventilaci\u00f3n, tambi\u00e9n llamado insert<\/strong> o chimenea cassette<\/strong>, o en cambio puede ser un hueco que cuente con materiales refractarios, es decir, que resistan altas temperaturas sin descomponerse.\n\nAdem\u00e1s, en las chimeneas<\/a>, el tubo de evacuaci\u00f3n de gases ir\u00e1 siempre oculto a trav\u00e9s de una campana o bien por una pared empotrada, de esta manera, distribuiremos el calor por nuestra vivienda de una manera discreta.\nOther differences: open and closed fire<\/span><\/h2>\n
Otras diferencias: fuego abierto y cerrado<\/h2>\nYa no es solo un tema est\u00e9tico, sino una gran diferencia en la producci\u00f3n de calor<\/strong> y en la eficiencia energ\u00e9tica. Gracias a un panel o a una puerta de cristal se consigue aumentar la temperatura<\/strong> dentro de la c\u00e1mara de combusti\u00f3n.<\/strong>\n\nHablando en cifras, un fuego abierto tiene apenas un rendimiento de un 15%, en cambio una chimenea o estufa de le\u00f1a moderna<\/strong> alcanza un rendimiento energ\u00e9tico superior al 78%, lo que permite calentar nuestra vivienda utilizando menor cantidad de le\u00f1a.\n\nAs\u00ed mismo, el fuego cerrado genera una combusti\u00f3n m\u00e1s limpia y eficaz puesto que el humo se extrae por el laberinto de tubos. Una chimenea abierta emite 15 veces m\u00e1s CO2<\/strong> que una cerrada.\n\nEn Carbel<\/a> somos especialistas en estufas de le\u00f1a<\/strong>, cassettes<\/strong> y termochimeneas<\/strong>, ofreciendo un producto funcional, eficaz y acorde a los dise\u00f1os de la actualidad.
