If you are using electricity to heat your home, getting a wood burner is a lot cheaper – so it really is a no brainer if you have somewhere to put it! Remember electricity costs are upwards of 14p/kWh, so installing a wood burner, with fuel costs of just 3.85p/kWh is about 3-4 times cheaper!!

Did you know that Wood burning stoves have become incredibly popular over the last few years, and it’s easy to see why! Spiraling energy costs means people are keen to find ways to save money!

It’s that time of the year when your stove needs some much deserved TLC after working hard for you through the winter! Our engineer would love to come and smarten up your stove and give it a full MOT! This service will include new fire rope, seal checks, pipe, flu and drought checks plus a good clean and blacken up. Yearly maintenance will ensure your stove will serve you extremely well for many years to come. Please contact us for more info and pricing either through DM or info@kent-stoves.co.uk 🙌

How much does a solid fuel stove cost?
A standard 5kW stove sells for £400 to £800, although it can be far higher depending on the model. You need to have it installed by a qualified fitter (HETAS registered) for safety and insurance purposes and the chimney will probably need to be lined. This installation cost will vary due to individual requirements.

Prices for logs can vary depending on where you are in the UK – city prices are unsurprisingly higher – but you can expect to pay around £65-75 for a cubic metre of seasoned hardwood, which would last a typical wood burner for a good eight weeks of winter.

The cost of the fuel
For a lucky few, fuel for a wood-burning stove is free, because they can gather it from nearby woodlands. If you have to buy fuel, then that’s an additional cost you need to factor in. Prices vary depending on whether you need to buy seasoned wood or if you have space to store and season the fuel yourself.

There are some more peripheral benefits about heating your home with a wood-fuelled stove. Wood burning stoves can be used as additional cooking surfaces in your home, perfect for warm cocoa on cold winter days. They also have the added bonus of saving you money on other utilities, like electricity

The first question you might ask is “Why would I want to install and use a stove in the first place?”
There are plenty of benefits of using a wood stove for your residential heat. The most obvious is the cleanliness of burning wood, which gives off less particulate matter and is a renewable resource, unlike gas-powered alternatives. Another chief benefit is the cost efficiency as wood can cost a great deal less than electricity and gas. Not to mention a professionally installed stove can add value to your property.

Now truth be told, an inset fire wouldn’t be my first choice but boy, are we installing quite a few lately! As a result, I’m beginning to love them! This Hunter Stoves Group Telford 5 multifuel fits so perfectly into the surround that my OCD practically sings with happiness. An inset stove allows a flush, seamless connection to a surround which leaves endless decoration options.

We are pumped for the weekend Hulk-a-maniacs! We’re chucking some logs on the fire and kicking back in our spandex budgie smugglers and letting our hair down.
