Wood Burning Stove Installation

The installation time can vary depending on the complexity of the project. Our team will assess your specific requirements and provide you with an estimated timeline.

Log burners and multi-fuel stoves are both types of heating appliances commonly used for burning wood or other solid fuels. While they share some similarities, there are key differences between the two:

‍Fuel Types:

‍Log Burners: As the name suggests, log burners are designed primarily for burning logs or large pieces of wood. They are often used for a traditional wood-burning experience.

Multi-Fuel Stoves: These stoves are designed to burn a variety of solid fuels, including wood, coal, and smokeless fuels. The ability to burn different fuel types makes them more versatile in terms of fuel options.

‍Grates and Airflow:

‍Log Burners: Log burners usually have a flat base without a grate. The logs are placed directly on the base, and the combustion air is controlled through the stove's air vents.

Multi-Fuel Stoves: Multi-fuel stoves typically have a grate that allows for better airflow beneath the fuel. This design is suitable for burning a variety of fuels and facilitates the removal of ash.

‍Air Controls:

‍Log Burners: Air controls in log burners are often simpler, and the primary control is usually for adjusting the airflow to regulate the burn rate.

Multi-Fuel Stoves: Multi-fuel stoves often have more sophisticated air controls to accommodate different fuel types. They may have separate controls for primary and secondary air intake.

‍Versatility:

‍Log Burners: Log burners are best suited for those who primarily want to burn logs and enjoy the ambiance of a wood fire.

Multi-Fuel Stoves: These stoves offer more flexibility, allowing users to choose between different types of solid fuels based on availability, cost, or personal preference.

‍Maintenance:

‍Log Burners: Because they typically lack a grate, log burners may require more frequent cleaning to remove ash and debris directly from the stove's base.

Multi-Fuel Stoves: The presence of a grate in multi-fuel stoves can make ash removal more convenient, but the grate itself may need periodic cleaning.

When choosing between a log burner and a multi-fuel stove, consider your specific heating needs, the type of fuel available to you, and your preferences regarding ease of use and maintenance. It's also important to comply with local regulations and ensure that the chosen appliance meets any applicable standards.

A pellet stove is a type of space heating appliance that burns compressed wood or biomass pellets to generate heat. These stoves are designed to be a more efficient and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional wood-burning stoves. Here are some key features and characteristics of pellet stoves:

Fuel:

Pellet stoves burn small, compressed pellets typically made from wood byproducts such as sawdust and wood shavings. Some pellet stoves can also burn pellets made from agricultural residues or other biomass materials.

Automation:

Pellet stoves often feature automated systems for feeding pellets into the combustion chamber. Many models have a hopper where you load the pellets, and an auger automatically transports them to the combustion chamber as needed. This automation allows for more consistent and controlled burning.

Efficiency:

Pellet stoves are known for their high efficiency. The combustion process is optimised, and the use of pellets with consistent moisture content contributes to cleaner and more efficient burning compared to traditional wood-burning stoves.

Heating Capacity:

Pellet stoves come in various sizes with different heating capacities, making them suitable for heating different-sized spaces. Some models are designed for smaller rooms, while others can provide enough heat for larger areas or even whole houses.

Ventilation:

Pellet stoves require proper ventilation, usually through a flue or chimney. Some models may have a venting system that can be installed horizontally through an exterior wall, providing more flexibility in placement.

Control Systems:

Many pellet stoves come with electronic control systems that allow users to adjust the heat output, set a thermostat, and program the stove to turn on or off at specific times. This level of control enhances convenience and energy efficiency.

Environmental Impact:

Pellet stoves are generally considered environmentally friendly because the pellets are often made from renewable resources. Additionally, the combustion process is efficient, resulting in lower emissions compared to some traditional wood-burning stoves.

Cleanliness:

Pellet stoves produce minimal ash compared to traditional wood stoves, as the combustion process is designed to be more complete. This can make maintenance and cleanup easier.
