Larissa was created with a clear vision: to make the unique experience of wood-fired warmth accessible to everyone. To achieve this, we integrated automatic combustion air control into the stove—a technology that continuously and silently optimizes the combustion process without requiring any user intervention.
The result is a product that combines the authentic pleasure of a wood flame with the simplicity and intelligence of a modern heating system.
Combustion air is the air that feeds the fire, providing the oxygen needed to burn wood and generate heat. In Larissa, an electronic system automatically manages both primary and secondary air, continuously adapting to the combustion process.
The benefits are significant:
- Faster ignition: a high initial supply of preheated primary air promotes quick and stable ignition, ensuring cleaner combustion from the very first minutes.
- Up to 50% longer burn time per load: thanks to ECO mode, the stove regulates airflow to keep embers at the ideal temperature for up to 3–4 hours, allowing reloading even 5–6 hours after the previous fuel load.
- Lower consumption and fewer emissions: controlled combustion maximizes thermal efficiency while minimizing waste.
Even in the event of a power outage, the stove continues to operate: the air registers automatically move to a fully open position to support combustion, with a recommended maximum load of 2 kg of wood.
Larissa features the Pro Air Setup system, allowing ventilation to be adjusted across four levels—OFF, QUIET, REGULAR, and BOOST—to suit any comfort or noise requirement.
In BOOST mode, warm air is distributed more intensely, reducing the time needed to reach the desired room temperature.
The post-combustion system, combined with preheated air and internal deflectors, also contributes to a more complete combustion process, reducing routine maintenance requirements.
Larissa continuously monitors the temperature inside the firebox and, when the combustion cycle is nearing completion, automatically signals that it is time to reload the wood through a flashing blue LED.
The LED panel communicates the stove status clearly and intuitively:
- Steady LED → Nominal operating mode
- LED off → ECO mode active
- Slow flashing LED → Time to reload wood
- Fast flashing LED → Fault condition requiring inspection
Connectivity comes as standard. Larissa includes both a handheld radio remote control with a backlit display for local operation and an integrated Wi-Fi module for smartphone management through the Total Control 3.0 app.
Remotely, users can monitor the stove, adjust temperature settings, manage ventilation levels, and receive notifications, even when away from home. The app is also compatible with Alexa.
Soft lines with a strong personality, an elegant finish, and a wide view of the fire: Larissa is designed to blend seamlessly into a variety of living environments, enriching every space with the beauty of the flame. Painted steel side panels, a newly designed handle, and a Nordiker firebox complete an aesthetic that has been carefully refined down to the smallest detail.
If you are looking for a wood-burning stove that combines the authentic pleasure of a real flame with the convenience of a smart, connected appliance, Larissa is the answer. Technology and tradition come together in a single product, delivering warmth that truly feels like home.
