Cylindrical/ Convector Stoves are modern stoves where the stove body is surrounded by steel panels with pockets of air which will heat up a larger area quicker. Many convection stoves come from Scandinavia as their rooms are larger and very well insulated although most manufacturers now offer some options. Cylindrical stoves are very popular in open plan, extended kitchens possibly with vaulted ceilings. Quite often convector stoves are installed with a twin wall, thermally insulated factory made chimney system. Most can be fitted with an external direct air kit.
