What is a heat storage stove?

A heat storage stove is a wood stove with heat-retaining material. At Attika, natural stone cladding made of soapstone or Porto stone serves this function: it absorbs some of the heat generated and, after the fire has gone out, releases it into the room over an extended period as pleasant radiant heat. In combination with additional storage modules, heat storage can be further increased and the available energy utilized particularly efficiently

How does a heat storage stove work?

A heat storage stove doesn't just use the heat from the fire while it's burning. The natural stone cladding made of soapstone or Porto absorbs some of the heat, stores it, and then slowly releases it back into the room.

This keeps the wood stove warm longer, even after the fire has gone out. The stored heat is released as pleasant radiant heat and helps maintain a consistent indoor climate.

Depending on the model, the storage capacity can be further expanded with a separate heat-storage module©. See the related tip for more information. The combination of natural stone and additional thermal mass ensures maximum heat storage and particularly long-lasting heat release.

What are the benefits of a heat storage stove?

Thanks to the heat-retaining properties of natural stone, the heat generated can be used for longer. Heat is released more evenly and over a longer period of time.
Since the stored heat remains available even after the fire has gone out, the available energy can be used more efficiently. This helps conserve firewood and protect the environment.

The main advantages:

longer heat release after the fire has gone out
pleasant radiant heat
more even heat distribution throughout the room
natural heat storage provided by natural stone
more efficient energy use and potential fuel savings
more environmentally friendly heating through better utilization of the generated heat
unique appearance thanks to distinctive grains and textures

Every natural stone cladding is one-of-a-kind. The texture, grain, and color effect may vary depending on the stone.

Soapstone and Porto as heat accumulators

Attika heat storage stoves are available in soapstone or natural stone porto, depending on the model. Both materials store heat and release it gradually into the living space.
Soapstone is characterized by its high density and excellent heat storage capacity. It absorbs heat quickly and releases it evenly over a long period of time. Its natural grain makes every finish unique.
Natural stone porto also offers additional thermal mass and impresses with its light, natural appearance. The vibrant surface gives every wood stove its own individual character.

When used in combination with optional heat storage modules, both soapstone and Porto can help maximize the heat storage capacity of the respective stove model and ensure that the energy generated is used in a particularly sustainable way.
The choice between soapstone and Porto is therefore a matter of both the desired aesthetic and personal interior design style.
