HEAT A COLD ROOM

Many older homes often have a room or 2 that can be very cold in the winter. It can be difficult to insulate these rooms and upgrading your whole central heating system can be very expensive. Installing a wood burning stove in a cold room can often be the answer.  

As a guide a wood burning stove with a nominal output of 8 kW could give you over 10 kW's of heat or the equivalent output of 5 large double radiators.

HEAT YOUR HOUSE

You will be surprised how much heat a good stove can produce and how far that heat can spread through your house. Many of our customers use thier stove as a primary heat source for a lot of the Winter, only using the central heating when it gets really cold.

Using a stove to help heat your house during the winter months simply involves leaving the doors open throughout the house to allow the heat to spread through your home.
