1.1 THE STORAGE HEATING STOVE

The sto rage heating stove is a fireplace ma de of cerami c or natural stone.
The energ y or heat gene rated by burni ng wood is abs orbed by the c eramic stor­age core. Once the wood ha s completely b urned, this cor e, as a heat excha nger,
radiate s the store d energy i n the for m of heat at a care fully dose d rate, rel eas­ing it over its surf ace for an extended ti me into the environment .

1.2 THE RADIATED HE AT

The human organ ism r esponds to radiate d hea t wit h a part icularly plea sant
feeli ng. It is physi ologica lly bene ficial and soot hing.
Since pre histori c ti mes humans hav e ut ilised and enj oyed radiate d h eat. It
is t ransmitt ed by electrom agnetic waves in the infrar ed rang e. Radi ated he at
travel s throu gh air without loss an d witho ut heati ng this . Not u ntil it encoun­ters solid bod ies l ike w alls, object s, an d als o pe ople does it ge nerate heat.
This effect is famil iar to everyone from su nny wint er days .
Even when t he air is v ery co ld you can f eel th e warm rays of th e sun on you r
skin.
It mak es you fee l a tempera ture that is higher than the a ctual ai r temperat ure.
This explain s the gr eat bene fits an d the su stainab ility of radiat ed heat.

Next to ston e and
bone, wood i s one of
the o ldest w orking
mater ials in the wor ld.

2.2 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

Burning rewood releases only as much CO2 as the tree has absorbed from the
atmosphere during its growth.

And when the rewood comes from nearby there are no additional CO2 emissions
from transport.

Wood rotting in the forest generates the same amount of CO2 as the same wood
burning.

2.1 WHAT IS WOOD?

Do you know what you are putting in the ring chamber of your Tonwerk storage
heating stove when you are lling it with wood?

This is 50% carbon, 42% oxygen, 6% hydrogen, and 2% mineral substances, nitro­gen, oils, resins, tanning agents, and colorants.

… that is wood!
