Automatic Start Function (ASF)
Is an innovative feature that automatically controls airflow through the grate. This allows the door to be kept shut while kindling the fire, making your stove independent of ambient air. You’ll appreciate the peace of mind of not having to leave the stove door open while the fire gets started. This is also ideal for modern homes with negative pressure.
Refuelling Boost Function (RBF)
The booster allows you to revive dying embers. Simply release the handle on the left for oxygen-rich air to flow in from below and blow life into the embers to set new wood alight. Before long you’re once again enjoying the warmth of a beautiful fire.
Silent Sliding Ashtray (SSA)
We like to say the ‘beauty’s in the details’ – and we mean it. The re-engineered design and damping feature of the Contura 800 Style range’s ash pan ensure that it slides quietly and smoothly during emptying
Smart features
The autostarter for fast fire-lighting, the booster to revive embers and the silent-slide ash pan are all features we are confident you’ll appreciate in the 800 Style. We have also enhanced a number of features generally in this range such as enlarging the air ducts for easier fire-lighting, made the door easier to open and close, and improved the effectiveness of the stove seal.The firebox in the 800 Style has been given an innovative new design to further boost the heat output. In addition, the handles are now easier to operate and are designed to not to get hot while the stove is burning. For added safety and convenience, the door is self-closing, but with the option of keeping it open during cleaning for example.

Stove tops
The stove top gives you that finishing touch. Depending on the model you go for, the 800 Style models are available with a painted aluminium top in black grey or white, black glass or soapstone.
Doors
With the 800 Style range, you have the option of a going for a glass door. But if you prefer a more traditional look, why not opt for a classic cast-iron door? For our stoves with a log store underneath, you can also choose a soft-close covering door in a matching colour.
Flame visibility and side panes
Watch the flames and enjoy the cosiness from different angles of the room. With side panes on your stove, you’ll be extending the fireside ambience in your home. But no glass at the sides has its advantages too – more of the appealing side panels to appreciate!
