    If you want a 5kW wood burner, squarer and deeper than our Woody… taller and wider than the Stock Cube….this could be your penguin. Let a Fubsy warm you up and chill you out.

    This penguin started life as the Stock Cube, it was then developed into a convector model, and an integral plinth was added, so effectively a Stock Cube in extra large. It has all the qualities of the Stock Cube; strong, simple, efficient and clean burning.  It shares the same firebox and performance as all of the stoves in the Stock Cube series. The Fubsy just gives you more to love…not only wider, but taller.

    Chilli Penguin simply couldn’t resist the name Fubsy; it comes from an old English word meaning “a short stature with a wide girth”, or “short and stout”. Who could walk past a Fubsy? It makes you want to dawdle, pause a while, fluff up a cushion, get a book, fill a glass.


    Convector panels

    Although often chosen for the look and large top plate which offers a wider surface for placing a kettle on, the convector panels makes these stoves particularly effective for heating large, well insulated rooms.

    How do convector panels work?

    As hot air created by heat from the stove's bodywork expands, it becomes lighter than the air outside the stove and rises up inside the convector panels, exiting from the top of the panels. This is replaced by cooler heavier air drawn in at the bottom of the panels, which is in turn heated. The warmer, lighter air will fill the room while the colder, heavier air being drawn in at the bottom of the stove will create a continuous heat cycle, which gently moves air around the room.


    Air controls

    This stove is beautifully simple to control, there is one air control knob. This is both the air boost, when fully extended and finer control when eased inwards. It comes with an air control tool to help you judge the boost control, but can equally just be operated by hand. Wood burns better on a bed of ash, but when you do want to empty it, you just scoop it out from the base of the firebox.


    Ecodesign 

    In order to be an Ecodesign stove, a stove must be independently verified to meet stringent emission requirements. Particulates or PMs are the most commonly recognised of these measures. These and other measures are shown in the tech table.

    Great service again, you literally couldn't fault the job they do, they are spotlessly clean whilst they work. Jack serviced our fire this year and he is a lovely fella just like Deri. Very happy to recommend again this year.
    Don Skelton
    Deri supplied, fitted and commissioned a log burner for us. Polite, professional, kept us informed at all stages. Turned up when he said, worked like a trooper all day & made a fantastic job & a great explanation of all things log burners. If your looking for a professional job, give Deri a shout, I doubt you’ll be disappointed… Now had Deri & Jack back for several services… top job, clean tidy & professional

    Rob Edwards
    We purchased our woodburner from Calon Yr Adref after looking for a local business with a personal approach. They did not disappoint! Deri was quick to respond and very accommodating to all our needs. He sorted all the parts to create the perfect install and arranged postage for us. His service from start to finish was excellent. Everything went together a dream and was exactly right for the space. We would highly recommend supporting this growing business, they are fantastic folk! Thank you so much!
    Martin Collins
    Highly recommend these guys, from start to finish, they provide a faultless service. Both easy going lads, but very professional, with a wealth of knowledge for their trade. We have had 100% honesty, and a job completed to a really high standard.

You won’t find better in the county or beyond, thank you again guys top job!!!!

    Jac Hall
    Jack came today instead of Deri, but was equally cheerful and efficient, and did a very good, thorough, clean job. Wholeheartedly recommend!
    Osian Jones
    Messaged to check if they covered my area to do a chimney repair. Unfortunately they didn't but Deri took the time to send a video explaining the steps he would take to try and resolve the problem. Didn't have to, but shows what a professional he is by doing it. Would highly recommend. Thanks again for the help
    Carl Clement
    Superb service, Deri is knowledgeable, helpful and a pleasure to have in our home. Chimney swept quickly and professionally, useful advice for a first time stove owner, and even performed some additional maintenance for us. Highly recommended.

    Your expert advice, the installation with a chimney check and a new cowl were of the highest standard, with an organised work plan in a quiet engaging working atmosphere. Guaranteed to be the perfect combination at the ‘HEART of the HOME’. DIOLCH YN FAWR IAWN. Gwynne, Mary, Peter
    Julie Griffiths
    Thank you Derri and Jack your workmanship is incredible and you have transformed my fireplace. You were both polite and made me feel reassured that I was in safe hands. Nothing was a bother and you left the place clean and tidy every evening when you left. I recommend this skilful pair even if it means waiting for them. Derri still in touch to support me with what fire surround to have if I decide to have one. Thank you both for helping me on my long journey to make my place look amazing
    Owen Pollard-Rice
    Deri made an excellent job of our installation and finished to a very high standard. His workmanship is not common these days as he takes the time to make sure everything is completed to a high standard and really takes care to look after your property. I would thoroughly recommend him for any installation.
