Can a wood burning stove save money?
At first glance, it would appear that installing a wood-burner is a costly exercise, with owners spending upwards of £540 to get one installed. However, the long-term financial benefits are far more appealing as they can result in reducing the cost of other fuel sources.
Wood burning stoves are getting rave reviews and are now a very serious alternative to any other form of secondary heating. Households up and down the country are looking for cheaper alternatives due to the frantically rising traditional energy supplies. Wood burners come in all shapes and colours these days and will enhance any household.
It is vitally important to have the appliance installed professionally by a HETAS registered fitter and once done will increase the value of your property.
Excellent quality dry wood can be found in most areas and prices differ from supplier to supplier. Obviously if you can source your own then the savings are generous indeed.
