Saving money?

Christmas and New year is now over and we are all looking for ways to save money in the coming year. Fuel bills keep rising and this keeps hitting the monthly budget, so can a wood burner help reduce this cost?

While the initial outlay can be expensive, they can reduce your fuel bills significantly, while at the same time being a fashionable addition to your home.

Can they save you money?

At first glance it would appear that installing a wood-burner is a costly exercise, with owners spending typically around £1500+ to get one supplied and installed. However, the long-term financial benefits are far more appealing as they can result in reducing the cost of other fuel sources. In this way, they can be compared to installing solar panels, which have a large upfront cost that can be recouped through lower heating bills in the years that follow.

Some customers will get to the stage when they can completely turn off the central heating in that room and perhaps others nearby. There is no set equation to work out how much money a wood-burning stove will save any household. It depends among other things on the upfront cost of the burner and how much it enables a household to reduce its other heating costs.
