Safety

Calimax Pellet Stoves win hands down when it comes to safety. Our pellet stoves start up and switch off automatically according to the pre-set temperature. The security system analyses the operating conditions and, if anything deviates from the norm, it reacts accordingly. For example, if the stove surface temperature exceeds a certain figure, fuel feed stops immediately.. If the temperature falls below the pre-set minimum level, which can be a sign of poor combustion, operation stops as well. The pressure levels in the chimney are also monitored, and the stove is switched off immediately if the pressure exceeds a certain level.

The Calimax model with a hot water heat exchanger provides another safety feature – a security temperature limiter (STB). A thermal exhaust back-up, as required for boilers, is unnecessary because the layer of embers that accumulates in the burn pot is thin and the low level of heat it radiates cannot produce an unsafe operating level.
