Based on the hugely popular Aire 5 woodburner, the Aire Intelligent 500 utilises Charnwood’s I-Blu combustion technology meaning the stove can run automatically, or you can control it yourself using the simple front-mounted button or the Charnwood Control App. You simply load the fire, close the door and let the stove do the rest.
This results in reduced fuel use, lower emissions and a beautifully clear view of the flames by constantly monitoring the fire and adjusting airflow for the cleanest, most efficient burn possible.
The stove is reliant on a mains electricity supply, and a battery pack is supplied for power cuts which gives you enough time to put the stove in to Powercut Mode. This sets the air controls at a level that enables it to continue burning efficiently, but you may need to keep the door open slightly for a few minutes after refueling it to enable it to get going again.
Charnwood also makes this stove in 3kw (Aire300), 4kW (Aire 400) and 7kW (Aire 700) versions
