The Stûv 30-H wood burning stove is a high-output cylindrical stove designed to combine advanced combustion control, flexible operation and optional heat storage in a larger-format appliance. Unlike the compact version, this model is built around a more powerful 9.5 kW nominal output, larger firebox and horizontal log loading, making it better suited to projects that need a stronger heat source and a more substantial stove presence.
A defining feature of the Stûv 30-H is its 3-door system. By rotating the drum, you can bring the required door to the front depending on how you want to use the stove. The glass door gives a wide view of the flames while maintaining safe, efficient closed-door operation. The solid door is designed for slower running and channels heat towards the optional accumulation core, while also concealing the combustion chamber when the stove is not in use. The loading door allows safe refuelling. This gives the stove far more flexibility than a fixed single-door model, as it can be operated differently depending on whether the priority is flame view, lower running, or practical refuelling.
The optional accumulation core is a major part of this model’s appeal. The stove can be fitted with a storage core that absorbs some of the heat during operation and then continues to release it after the fire has gone out. According to the supplied data, this stored heat can be radiated for up to 10 hours after the fire has died down. That helps prolong the feeling of warmth and comfort beyond the active burn cycle. The accumulator mass adds significant thermal capacity, increasing the stove weight from 220 kg to 366 kg, with the accumulator itself weighing 151 kg.
Performance is strong throughout the range. The Stûv 30-H has a nominal output of 9.5 kW, an output range of 4.6 to 13.5 kW, nominal efficiency of 80.8%, seasonal efficiency of 70.8%, fine particle emissions of 22 mg/Nm³, and CO emissions of 0.04%. The supplied data also states excellent efficiency even at half power, low pollutant levels and low wood consumption. The stove supports direct outside air connection from beneath or behind, helping improve overall installation performance without interfering with mechanical ventilation. Its combustion system is described as airtight, with no room air consumption issues and no CO in the living room.

Expert Insight
The most important distinction with the Stûv 30-H is that it is not just a design stove with a rotating drum. Its engineering is centred around controlled combustion, airtight operation and the option of real thermal storage. The solid-door mode is especially significant because it is designed to redirect energy towards the optional storage core rather than radiating it immediately through the glass. That gives the stove a different heating profile from a standard radiant model and makes it better suited to customers who want warmth to continue after the main fire has burned down.
The outside air connection is also a major practical advantage, particularly in more airtight or energy-efficient homes. Drawing combustion air from outside rather than from the room helps maintain the internal air balance and supports better overall performance of the installation. The stated airtightness and good efficiency even at partial output further reinforce that this stove is aimed at higher-performance modern installations, not just visual impact.
Suitability
The Stûv 30-H is well suited to larger living spaces, energy-efficient homes, wood-framed properties and interiors where the stove needs to provide both visual presence and meaningful heat output. It is a strong choice for customers who want a premium cylindrical wood burning stove with flexible door functions, higher nominal output and the option of long-lasting stored heat.
Installation / Technical Notes
The stove is made from steel and cast iron and finished in Stûv grey. It measures 1820 mm high to the stove body and 1950 mm overall height in the supplied dimensional data, with a width of 575 mm and depth of 535 mm. It uses a 180 mm flue outlet, with connection possible above or at the rear, and a 100 mm outside air inlet. Weight is 220 kg without the accumulation mass and 366 kg with the accumulation mass. The stated nominal draw is 12 Pa, average smoke temperature is 346°C, and minimum insulation thickness between the stove and combustible materials is listed as 10 cm at the back and 10 cm at the sides.
