Since European stoves are rated in KWH instead of BTUH, to convert KWH to BTUH multiply as follows:

KWH x 3,412 = BTUH

From what I've seen about procuring parts for these foriegn models, I would avoid them altogether.

As for peat, I know when we went to Ireland in February they were burning that. There is no greater ambiance then sitting at a pub with your bride, having a nice true Irish ale, and having your FREAKING EYES SMOKED OUT BY THAT HEATING CRAP THAT PUTS OUT MORE SMELL THAN HEAT!
Ahhh me nose itches for the smell o' peat and me eyes water for the site of a a blackthorn in bloom...... :twisted:

No franco, smokeless coal was phurnacite and/or coke. Other competitors are now in the market.
