Will A Logburner Heat My Home ? Do you want a warmer and cosier home.

A wood burning stove can be placed in almost any area of your home. As long as there is an option to install a vent pipe leading outside. This allows you to efficiently heat specific rooms or spaces. And making wood burners a practical and cost-effective solution for home heating.

Would you like more economical heating that will save you money?

Wood is an inexpensive fuel source. It costs less per BTU than oil, gas, or electricity. Homeowners who practice strategic zone heating in their homes can save hundreds of ££’s in utility bills each year. With the promise that gas and electric prices are going to rise significantly in the coming months wood burning is looking as sound alternative.

Very rapid quality heating

The biggest advantage homeowners have with a wood burning stove is the quality of heat the burner will give off. Woods stoves operate on the principal of radiant heat. Which warms an area faster and more efficiently than warm air being blown through a home’s vent system. Fitted in a central position in your home you will be amazed how the rest of your house suddenly gets a whole lot warmer.

Are they good for the environment?

Compared with using fossil fuels for heat (natural gas, propane, coal, etc.) wood is eco-friendlier. It’s considered “carbon-neutral,” which means when it burns, it doesn’t add additional carbon dioxide to the environment. This is because in its natural state as a tree, wood absorbs carbon dioxide that’s in the atmosphere. During combustion, a balance is maintained.

Modern wood heating appliances are both stylish and cost-effective. Wood stoves or fireplace inserts suit any décor or budget. And with attractive, affordable models available in both modern and traditional designs.

With lower costs and attractive designs, wood stoves provide an effective long-term heating solution.

If you live near a forest or public woodland, consider asking your local council about collecting burnable wood for free—it could lead to significant savings.

Wood stoves are valued for their radiant heat, which warms spaces more quickly and efficiently than conventional vent systems.

Efficiency levels of a wood stove are very high and they save money!

Not only are wood stoves more eco-friendly, but they’re also becoming more efficient. This means that more heat is used to heat your home rather than being expelled up the chimney.

Many modern stoves are over 80% efficient, losing only 20% of heat through the chimney and using the rest to warm your home.

When installing or servicing always use a registered installer for security and peace of mind.
