Heat Efficient Stove Options

Heat Efficient Stove Options. What a stove can do for your home.

They can be placed in most rooms of a house and need to allow fumes and gases to be drawn away from the room and out through flue/chimney.

Wood burners have been around for many years but have risen in popularity in recent times due to their efficiency and low running costs. At Kent Stoves in Faversham & Whitstable we offer a full range of heat efficient Stove Options.

The range of stoves to choose from increases year on year

New environmental standards for particle emissions came into force in 2022 aimed at creating a cleaner atmosphere.

Stove manufacturers are rolling out eco-friendly burners with a Stove Industry Alliance Eco Design-ready stamp of approval plus new and futuristic designs.

These reduce particle emissions by 90% compared to an open fire and 80% compared to an old-style stove.

Wood burning stoves are exceptionally clean and super-efficient

But please remember firstly and most importantly ….

Burning wood with a moisture level of below 20% will give twice the heat output of freshly felled timber and will also help to reduce a build-up of tar in your chimney and the environment.

To achieve this correct moisture level, the wood should be seasoned or matured for approximately two years. Storage should ideally be outside and be stacked to let the air flow around the timber, this will then dry naturally.
