Contura wood burner stoves are built to the highest standards of quality, offering a high energy output and outstanding style that is unlike any other on the market. Contura products are easy to use, equipped with a single control for exact output regulation, which allows simple and precise combustion control.
The tall Contura 690 series of models gives a majestic impression of a modern stove, displaying the fire high above floor level. The C690 series has multiple style and function options: three different colours (white, grey and black), three different tops (painted aluminium, glass or soapstone), two different doors (cast iron or glass) and several accessories such as log storage boxes and heat retaining Powerstone.
Whilst the basic C690 model has a cast iron door, available with black or grey exterior, the C690G Style has a tough glass door offering a modern, timeless style, which works with all types of interior. The C690G is available in a choice of black or white exterior, with a painted, glass or soapstone top. Alternatively, the 690AG model has a natural style with its Artstone surround, a grey, velvet-smooth ground cast stone, unique to Contura. Regardless of your favourite variant, you will enjoy many hours of cosiness and pleasant heat each time you light a fire.
The integrated handles in the front of the stove are designed to be cool-to-touch and do not get hot. A practical compartment with door (fitted as standard) under the stove keeps logs, gloves and matches in order. Adjustable feet ensure the stove is level on uneven floors.
In the rear of the stove there is an extra duct system for spreading preheated combustion air. The system is called Clean Burning and is activated by sliding the control on the front to the left. The stove burns efficiently and for long periods resulting in a combustion with very low particle concentrations.
An ingenious Automatic Start Function automatically controls the lighting air through the grate. It means that the door can be shut at the same time that the start-up fire is lit and the stove therefore becomes completely independent of room air. Which means it feels safer not having to leave the stove with an open door during the start-up fire.
With the Refuelling Boost Function you can ”save” embers that have nearly died. You just open the handle on the left, new oxygen flows in from below and brings out the embers so that the new wood catches light. After a short time you can once again enjoy a beautiful fire and heating.
Thanks to its design and damping function, Contura’s new Silent Sliding Ashtray slides quietly and softly during emptying.
Additional C690 options include a thermostat-controlled fan which distributes the heat quickly and provides a more even temperature. The fan starts when the fire is lit and stops when the fire has gone out. Easy to install and can also be retrofitted.
The optional Contura turntable provides stepless rotation through 360 degrees. The turning angle and the speed of rotation are adjustable.
Contura floor protection is available in black or grey sheet metal or transparent, toughened glass. In addition to being attractive and protecting the floor they are easy to remove for cleaning.
All 690 models and can be supplemented with heat retaining Powerstone. The Powerstone heat tank is concealed in the stove and retains the heat for a long time. This option cannot be combined with the fan. Prolonged heating can also be provided with a soapstone top, a naturally heat retaining material which remains warm long after the embers have died. Soapstone, has a unique natural veining, which means no stoves appear the same.
An item that is as attractive as it is practical is the freestanding log storage box, shaped for the Artstone and metal stoves in the Contura 610 and 690 series. Available in black, grey and white and can only be placed on the right hand side of the stove.
A Contura Outdoor air inlet ensures the stove can be connected to outdoor air. Connecting the stove to outdoor air means that the firebox will receive cool, oxygen rich outdoor air to give more efficient combustion.
