NexGen-Hybrid™ is a wood burning technology that combines the best of two worlds: the clean burning efficiency of a non-catalytic stove and the greater heat output of a catalytic stove. This advanced system drafts and operates like a super clean non-catalytic stove, while burning less wood to generate a greater heat output like a catalytic stove. The results are lower emissions, higher efficiencies, and longer burn times.
NexGen-Hybrid™ Technology, three stages of combustion
Stage 1: Occurs when the wood is burning and heat from the fire causes the wood to release gases and smoke.
Stage 2: Preheated air is introduced into the fire, which ignites the gases and smoke. This produces more heat and reduces emissions.
Stage 3: Remaining gases and smoke enter an advanced combustor above the baffle plate where they are reignited, producing even more heat and reducing emissions even further and getting you the best result for your home heating.
The result of this three-stage combustion process is cleaner, longer burns, higher efficiencies, and more heat into your home. This makes NexGen-Hybrid™ wood appliances some of the most efficient and cost effective ways to heat your home, even when the power is out.
The greatest wood burning option ever!
Starting your wood fireplace or insert has never been easier. Simply load your wood into the firebox, push the GreenStart™ button, and you’ll have a roaring fire within minutes!
You can also use the GreenStart™ Igniter when adding new wood or refreshing your fire after an overnight burn. Your fireplace door stays closed during startups; NO MORE SMOKY STARTS, NO MORE SLOW STARTS, ANYONE CAN DO IT!
The GreenStart™ igniter option is available on all Lopi® wood stove and fireplace inserts except the Evergreen fireplace insert, and Answer fireplace insert.
All Lopi wood burning models are tested to EPA’s Cord Wood Standard.
Cord wood testing mirrors home use by burning split cord wood pieces and measuring the emissions through the entire range of a unit’s operation. Most manufacturers test to the old crib wood standard, which produces great lab results, however does not give you real world measurements on how the unit will operate in your home. Testing to cord wood produces true real world performance that can be duplicated in your home.
Wide BTU ranges
All Lopi wood burning models feature a wide range in BTUs, from low to high. With such a diverse BTU range, you get an excellent low burn, medium burn, and high burn that are all easily controllable. This gives you the versatility to be able to burn a brisk, roaring fire or a calm overnight fire with ease, all from the same appliance.
