Choosing the right stove for your home
Choosing a stove involves more than finding a design you love. The right appliance should complement your interior, provide an appropriate level of heat and suit the practical requirements of your property.
Fuel Type
From the traditional warmth of wood burning stoves to the convenience of gas stoves and electric stoves, each fuel type offers different benefits. Pellet stoves provide efficient, controllable heating with automated fuel delivery, while multifuel stoves offer additional fuel flexibility.
Heat Output & Room Size
Choosing the correct heat output is essential for comfort and efficiency. A stove that is too powerful may overheat the room, while an undersized appliance may struggle to provide sufficient warmth. Room dimensions, insulation, glazing and ceiling height all influence the heat output required.
Design & Installation
Whether you prefer a freestanding stove, a space-saving inset stove or a striking suspended stove, the installation format can have a significant impact on the appearance and layout of your room.

What's the difference between wood burning, multi-fuel and pellet stoves?
Wood burning stoves are designed to burn logs, while multifuel stoves can accommodate a range of manufacturer-approved solid fuels.

Each has its advantages depending on your heating requirements, lifestyle and preferences.
Can I install a stove in a Smoke Control Area?
Can I install a stove in a Smoke Control Area?
Yes, provided the appliance and fuel comply with the relevant regulations. In a Smoke Control Area, burning wood generally requires an exempt appliance operated in accordance with its conditions.
