As we all know, Scandinavians have a highly developed wood burning culture. For example, in Norway, every family has more than one wood burning stove. The Scandinavian market, more accurately Denmark, is now one of the most dynamic markets in Europe, with leading industrial enterprises.
For a long time, this wood heating culture has allowed them to sometimes take the lead in some uses: ignition from above (called "inversion"), use of small logs (the standard is more on 30cm logs)
At the same time, we know our Danish cousins (let's get a little familiar, because HWAM is now a part of SEGUIN Group) and their strong sensitivity to hagge: a typical Danish word that evokes a warm atmosphere and enjoys the beautiful things in life with our loved ones.
It's hagge to sit down and chat with friends; Lighting candles is hagge. Of course, lighting your wood stove in the center of winter is totally hagge.

Hygge wood heating
As you know, with our Danish friends, wood heating goes beyond the renewable aspect of wood energy. It is not only a heating device, but also a mentality with many advantages Immediately discover three advantages of wood heating:
1/Very hot at a specific point
There are hot spots in your home
When the thermal code requires the house design, the temperature must be uniform to the ready level everywhere, which may seem retrograde, but if you think about it carefully, it is very consistent. It is meaningless to have 22 ° everywhere in the house, especially if you are active (even less if you sleep under a good duvet).
On the other hand, if you start to catch a cold, you come back from a very cold place, or you work in a static position or watch TV, you sometimes need to be closer to the hot spot than 22 °.
18 or 19 ° house, but there is a wood stove near the living room to raise the temperature to 25 °, which is actually an ideal winter balance.
2/Wood heating, winter phototherapy
In Scandinavia, the days in winter are very short, sometimes only a few hours. In the era of LED light and micro cold light, it is good for energy consumption. The particularly warm light of wood fire is the best balance source of our winter natural light demand.
Indeed, the beauty of fire has a warm and hypnotic effect. It is the perfect natural therapy to dispel seasonal depression in winter.

3/The virtue of contemplation
There is no doubt that when we have the opportunity to think about natural phenomena for at least a few minutes in a day, we will feel better. Everyone can experience that seeing animals, watching snow fall, rivers flowing or waves lapping on the beach immediately changes your balance and brings a little peace. The fire of wood fire perfectly played this role; Defer watching the latest series of programs for a few minutes, and spend some time watching the fire dance of the wood stove. It is very worthwhile to have a few contractions or the latest yoga!
Heat, light and contemplation: This is logical and full of common sense, but we have forgotten it a little. We pay close attention to the ecological, economic and energy aspects of our profession, which is also important. However, if at SEGUIN, we are customer-centric, and then realize that we have done well, first of all for you, this is a great driving force to continue to move forward!
In order to let you enjoy its advantages, now we find our wood burning appliances from our Danish friends.
