The Traditional Choice
Carbon Footprint
Wood burning or multi-fuel stoves can help you achieve a low carbon footprint. With gas and electricity prices rising, a stove does not just make good sense for the environment, but helps your pocket too. Although woodburning stoves generally have low emissions, new Ecodesign woodburning stoves have even lower emissions, making them the most environmentally friendly stoves available today.
Space & Size
If you don’t have room for a freestanding stove, we have inset stoves. These stoves come in various designs and heat outputs, meaning you can create the look that appeals to you.We can advise on your ideal size of stove. As all requirements differ, we suggest that you visit our showroom with the size of the room you wish to heat, together with the size of the fireplace opening & chimney breast and we will help you choose the right stove.
Practical uses
Not only can a stove heat your room, many stoves enable you to cook on top as well, meaning you can still boil a kettle or cook a stew during a power outage, or to reduce electric use. To keep things simmering, we recommend using one of our trivets. If you would prefer to heat your whole house, consider a boiler stove - these can usually be linked in with an existing convenience fuel system, making you rely on fossil fuels even less.
Be it a functional addition to your home or a statement in your living room, we have a stove that is right for you, to suit your lifestyle.
