Wood Burning Stoves

What is a wood burning stove?

Sounds stupid, doesn’t it? However, almost everyone who comes into the showroom asks for “One of those wood burning stoves”. When asked “What do you want to burn?” The reply often includes the word “Coal”!

A woodburning stove, burns wood! It is designed specifically to burn wood. Airflow through the appliance has been carefully thought out to get the best performance from wood. And, most importantly it doesn’t have a grate, unlike multi-fuel stoves!

Wood Stove Makes and Manufacturers

Most of the best examples of true wood burning stoves hail from the Scandinavian countries. Norway, gives us the famous “Jotul” brand; Denmark, “Morso”. These two companies still figure large in the British market and have strong U.K bases.

The 'state of the art' is possibly represented by 'Austroflamm’s' G1 stove. Soapstone lined. Dimpled surfacing. Contemporary styling. Superb! (I own one of these, so admit to a little bias!)

British manufacturers include, 'Hunter', 'Villager', 'Aarrow', 'Stovax', to name but four. Predominantly, British built woodstoves are steel construction. (Primarily because we have a strong tradition of steel fabrication and very few foundries!)

Deciding Which Wood Stove You Want

There are wood burner stoves to which you can add grates. These stride the fence between wood burning and multi fuel. Note however that the result is a compromise between the very different needs of burning wood and coal. Some manufacturers do it better than others.

The answer, truly, is to define early in your search for a stove, what are you going to burn? Do you have access to a good wood supply? (Even the smallest wood burning stove can easily gobble a ton or two of wood in a winter!)

Benefits of Stoves - the Stove Experience

By now you are wondering why you ever contemplated a wood burning stove in the first place! The answers are:

  1. The wood fuel is clean to handle, and easy to transport to the fire.
  2. So little ash is produced that the chore of cleaning the stove is reduced to weekly, or less!
  3. The incredible efficiency that can be achieved with a well designed stove.
  4. The negative contribution to global warming. (Burning wood puts no more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than the tree removed in the first place!)
  5. The sheer joy of a crackling wood fire!

Working out What You Need

Use our links to browse manufacturers websites then contact us for the best advice on the wood burner stove that would suit you. It will help if you have already done some homework.

Use site calculators to arrive at an output requirement, (See 'Villager' website for an easy to use calculator), and find a 'Look' that you like - Black? Enamel? Tall? Short?

We have access to all the wood stoves in the British market, so PLEASE don’t ask us to send ALL the stoves brochures! Our factsheets will help you answer more of your queries, but Knowledge is no substitute for Experience!

Phone, email or write, and we will help all we can!

Competitive pricing. First Class service

Stove Experience is proud of its competitive pricing policy, however, we firmly believe that "You gets what you pays for!” With some other suppliers, you pay the full amount of your stove in advance, have 100 plus kilo’s of cast iron or steel delivered to your doorstep, instead of your fireplace, and be told that “The instructions are in the box”. If you've done that already, please don’t call us!
