FAQ - Frequently asked questions about Rocal D-8

Features of Rocal D-8

How hot will my Rocal D-8 get?

The Rocal D-8 metal fireplace model has double combustion, sealed combustion and a clean glass system.

Its optimum power (nominal with an efficiency of 87%) is 11.3 kW. At maximum operating power it reaches 13 kW.

What does it mean that my Rocal D-8 has double combustion?

The double combustion of the Rocal D-8 model is an additional contribution of preheated air in the upper part of the combustion chamber that allows the burning of all the particles that have not been burned in the area where the fuel is and that - in a device that did not have this system - would be ash, soot in the tube or particle emissions into the atmosphere.

This over-oxygenation produces a burning of all these particles of material that would normally be waste.

Visually, we see an additional fire of great beauty, which will translate into greater heating power at lower consumption, that is, greater performance. The performance data measures the burning efficiency.

A double combustion stove is more ecological and environmentally friendly due to its lower emissions and lower fuel consumption.

What advantages does the external air intake of my Rocal D-8 provide?

In a sealed stove with an air intake connected to the outside, the combustion air is taken directly from outside the home. In this way, its oxygenation level remains intact.

In addition, the need to ventilate to renew the air is avoided. In addition, we largely eliminate interference that other air currents can generate inside the house, such as those caused by the kitchen extractor fan.

What is vermiculite? What are its benefits?

Vermiculite is a mineral-based material that stands out for its extraordinary thermal properties. Vermiculite allows for greater efficiency (ratio between the amount of wood consumed and the heat generated) than metal interiors. Vermiculite also stands out for heating up more quickly than traditional cast iron interiors and for providing a very bright fire.

The high temperature developed with the help of vermiculite contributes to generating very low levels of emissions, little residue in the form of ash and the capacity for pyrolytic self-cleaning (that is, by developing sufficient temperature in the combustion chamber the material will remain the same light colour as it was originally).
