NEW 900 Style Series from Contura

Largest of Contura’s freestanding cylindrical stoves and a new flagship for the Contura family.

Europe’s leading wood burning stove manufacturer, Contura, launches a new stove collection this autumn: Contura 900 Style series is the ‘big brother’ to the brand’s most popular and award-winning stove series, 800 Style.

Contura 900 Style builds upon the much-appreciated design and technology of Contura 800 Style, adding a larger format, new features, and more generous glass panels.

Offering greater flame visibility, the glass door and side panels on Contura 900 Style are larger than in any of Contura’s previous models, making the fire the star of the show. The extremely spacious firebox makes lighting easier and more practical and allows for logs of up to 40 cm in length.

Designed with heat exchange technology, facilitating the extraction of more energy from the wood, the 900 series also provides a more efficient heat source whilst also reducing emissions. In the taller 900 Style models there is also room for a Powerstone, which stores (and emits) heat for longer.

In a first for Contura stoves, the 900 Style series features an all-new Bypass Function (BPF). When opening the door, a bypass damper opens, which captures the smoke and reduces the risk of it entering the room.

Other functions and features of the 900 Style series include:

•  Automatic Start Function (ASF) – With ASF you don’t need to have the door open when lighting the fire. This feature makes the fire safer – particularly good for modern houses that have negative pressure.
• Refuelling Boost Function (RBF) – Open the handle on the left and bring the fire back to life. RBF allows new oxygen to enter from below, breathing life into a fire that has almost extinguished.
• Silent Sliding Ashtray (SSA) – The ashtray has a damping feature, which means that it slides quietly and smoothly during emptying.
• Clean Mode Function (CMF) – The door can be locked in the open position. This makes cleaning the ash out of the stove easier and safer.
• Cold handles – The door can be opened by hand and without gloves or tools, even while the stove is in use.

Contura 900 Style comes in several colours, materials, sizes and heights, and with integrated open or closed log boxes, catering to different tastes, spaces and needs. Homeowners can choose from classic black, a contemporary grey, crisp white, or soapstone – with unique, natural veining. Contura 900 Style is also available with or without glass side panels.

“The 900 Style series provides a bigger and improved version of our best-selling stove collection – the 800 Style – and with the latest fire combustion technology,” says Phil Wood, UK managing director at Contura.

“This new series is ideal for those looking for more flame visibility, and with so many different variations of stove in regard to size, height, colours, glass panels, and log box options, stove owners will benefit from a truly customised appliance to fit their space, style preference and heating needs.”
