Requirements for an efficient stove
It is vital that all the hot combustion products from a stove travel swiftly through a flue system and are exhausted outside at roof level. This is normally achieved through the use of a Class 1 flexible steel flue liner. An inefficient chimney can result in tar deposits internally and staining can seep into the building internally.
Part J of the building regulations is applicable to the installation of a stove and its flue. It requires a Class 1 flue system: either a flexible metal liner or Class 1 masonry flue which should be a minimum 6” diameter and be completely air-tight. It is essential to ensure the flue system is adequate for a stove installation.

Wood Burners
Wood burning stove installers – Wood burning stoves have become an extremely popular option for British home owners. They are not only the stylish must-have fashion accessory but extremely fuel efficient. Most homeowners ultimately choose wood burners because they know they will get more heat with less fuel. Average energy prices for the UK homeowner have massively increased recently, so many people are turning to the alternative of wood burning stoves.
It’s estimated that, when all the installation costs are taken into account, a wood-burning stove will start paying for itself in its fifth year. However with more gas and electricity prices likely this repay period could become even shorter.
There are several issues to consider when installing a wood burner such as: building regulations, provision of a flue, planning permission, low smoke areas, fuel storage and fuel supply.
Each particular building has its own insulation challenges but it’s estimated that a wood-burning stove could save the average home up to 30% on its heating bills.
Consideration must be given though to the wooden fuel. There are storage and supply issues. More urban properties often have to pay a premium for wood which leads some people to choose multi fuel stoves instead. Being able to use smokeless fuel as well is not as friendly to the environment but can be friendlier to your wallet.
However both in terms of fashion and savings wood burning stoves are most definitely in vogue and some models even have a purchasing waiting list.
