Install a Wood Stove
Install A Wood Stove. With the cost of energy seemingly rising on a monthly basis it does warrant investigation as to alternative heating options.
Fitting A wood Stove
Fitting a wood stove could be the perfect solution. As they are without doubt far cheaper to run especially if you can source you own fuel.
We are always being asked the best place and way to install a new wood stove. Stoves basically can be installed almost anywhere in the home. But as with most things some are far better positioned than others.
When it comes to flue pipes the hard and fast rule is the straighter they are the better the air will flow. Ideally, your piping should rise directly up into a chimney. As such located above the stove, but angles can be added as required.
Straighter or less curved runs create stronger air drafts that will promote more efficient burning and heat creation.
Installing your new wood burning stove in the centre of your house this without doubt is the favoured option!!
If you can fit centrally once the stove has been lite you will find the whole house will become much warmer very quickly as the central chimney warms up. We always get customers commenting how much warmer the whole house gets and therefore reduces central heating costs accordingly.
