Does A Log Burning Stove Work Efficiently ?

A wood burning stove is a highly efficient source of heat delivering over 80% economy in many cases.

The new generation of stoves are clean and extremely easy to use making them a must for the majority of homes. A wood burner can be up to 79% cheaper to run than an electric heater and 32% cheaper than a gas effect fire.

Burning hardwood is a must for efficiency and the environment.

Hardwoods are denser woods that burn hotter and longer than softwoods, but you will need to let them season for up to 2 years.  (Ash is an exception and can be burnt a bit earlier although the wood burns best when seasoned.)

Estimated savings using a wood stove!

• 79% cheaper to run than an electric fire.
• 32% cheaper per kw than a gas effect fire.
• 58% cheaper than oil filled heater.

Imagine if you could source your own logs from a local forest free – just how much you could potentially save a year?
