New Product From Rayburn The 345W Cooker
Tuesday 1st April 2008
Interest
and
demand
for
low
-carbon
fuelled
products
continues
to
be
strong
, as a result Rayburn have
launched
a
new
member
of
the
family
, known
as
the
345W
Although
based
on
the
355SFW
it
has
been
specifically
developed
to
burn
only
wood
logs
, and
will
therefore
qualify
for
a
low
rate
of
VAT
under
the
government
's
new
scheme
, where
the
cooker
forms
part
of
a
full
installation
package
to
the
customer
.
It
offers
the
same
features
and
benefits
as
the
355
, having
a
main
cast
iron
oven
and
lower
, steel
warming
oven
, large
graduated
hotplate
, mild
steel
boiler
and
thermostatic
control
for
the
heating
mode
.
As
a
result
of
stringent
independent
testing
HETAS
approval
and
listing
has
been
given
.
Performance
based
on
a
1
.5hour
refuelling
period
. Outputs
will
vary
according
to
factors
such
as
type
of
wood
, moisture
content
and
refuelling
frequency
.

The
reciprocating

has
two
baffle
plates
located

is
not
required
