HETAS Registered Stove Installers
Hetas Registered
When installing a new wood stove always use a Hetas registered fitter. (HETAS)
The installation of a wood burner must comply with building regulations. The easiest way to do this is to use a qualified fitter.
HETAS-registered installers deal with wood, solid-fuel and biomass domestic heating appliances and can self-certify that their work complies with building regulations, so it’s safe and legal.
Benefits of using a registered fitter
- Safety
- Easier to insure your home
- Peace of mind
- Total burner efficiency
Could this be a money saver?
At first glance, it would appear that installing a wood-burner is a costly exercise. With owners spending upwards of £1000 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.
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 huge!!
Wood stoves and the environment
This summer we are seeing more people installing wood stoves than ever before. Mainly due to the cost savings they can provide. One question our fitters are always asked is how environmentally friendly are they? The green benefits of burning wood are gaining wider and wider support.
Burning wood cleanly only releases the same amount of CO2 into the atmosphere as from a tree when it is left to rot naturally as it would do at the end of its lifecycle. What is more, harvested trees are replaced with new trees, which in turn absorb CO2 in the process of photosynthesis as they grow. So, in short, good!!
