Dual air system regulates heating and cooling
With two efficient heating systems Contura 26 stoves have a fantastic ability to both control the heat distribution and the cooling down period. The red arrows indicate how cold air is drawn into the rear of the stove, continues through two pipes in the firebox, passes through metal hoses and is distributed into the room at the top of the front side of the stove.
The orange arrows indicate how cold air is drawn in at floor level and heats up between the stove’s hot internal parts and the outer tile/soapstone to be spread via the grille.

Adjustable damper
The adjustable damper in Contura 26 enables you to regulate the amount of heated air from the stove. Adjustable damper is provided with Contura 590, 590T, 34T and 35T when a heat tank is selected. A closed damper gives a long cooling down period. An open damper distributes the heat more quickly, which is good when you want to heat a room up quickly.

Heat tank
Using olivine as a heat tank makes it possible to store heat. You get even heat distribution over a long period. With the damper closed the cooling down time is up to 18 hours for Contura 26T with extra heat tank. Heat tank is included in the Contura 400 range and in the low model of the Contura 26K and 26T. A heat tank is also available for 590, 590T, 26K high, 26T high, 34T and 35T.
